Suggestions for new PC

Hi everyone. I'm preparing to build another computer within the next two months and I need opinions/help/suggestions on what components to use. I've been out of keeping myself updated on all the new stuff so please leave a comment on what I should use in my next computer.

First off I'm going to get another Shuttle.

Then the components...

Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual core?

ATI or Nvidia card?

Western Digital or Seagate HD?

Corsiar, Crucial, Kingston, etc. RAM?

Intel and AMD should be announcing price cuts for their current CPUs to introduce their new lineup so I will be waiting for that before I make my decision on that.

So what do you think?

Make a nice indie computer; AMD, Lynx OS etc. i guess mac used to be indie. but i saw yesterday that there profit is up 74% since the iPhone, can't be having that for a flagship indie product.

i only really suggest Lynx because it'll save you about 300 Euro... but i do advise taking a look here:

seems to me that Windows doesn't stand a chance. :)
