Oh yeah. I also got a nice Optiquest V95 19" monitor to go with it.
Run that off my Marvel G200-TV video card. :) I would have liked to
go with a 21" monitor but I would have had to spend literally more
than double what I paid for the Optiquest to get a decent one. I'll
save that money and do without the extra inch/inch and a half of
viewable space.

Yup. I May throw the NT5 Beta on there since we're testing them at
work, but I doubt it. NT is one of those things you really want to
hold off on until you get a service pack or three.

Well, I find myself printing less and less on my laser printer, except
for priority mailing labels and such, but we print all our own cards
on our inkjet and I still have plans to make my own decals on it.
Other than that, the photo printer really can't be replaced by
anything else because even though I can e-mail pictures to my
relatives, most of them still don't have computers, and even the ones
who do would prefer something they could hold in their hands or put in
a frame. :)
