Vod - Just a word of advice for you: avoid Alienware. They are now owned by Dell, and I think everyone knows about Dell's use of substandard components. If you have the know-how (and seriously, it's not all that hard) I would highly recommend building your own rig. I've been doing it for my last two PCs, and I've never had any problems. If you do choose to build it yourself, you can save a TON of money, and have a better system overall.
My current specs (two year old system):
ASUS motherboard with AMD 3000+ processor at 2.2 gHz
Crucial RAM 1.5 GB
Western Digital Hard Drive 120 GB
ATI Radeon x1300 256 MB video card
For the next gen of games, you WILL need more RAM than is listed in your setup. I'd recommend at least 2 GB. Technically, you may be able to run new games on less, but the results likely wouldn't be pretty.
Oh, and yes, I'm planning to start work on a new system this year.
