eughh Flash. HTML5 is the way forward lol

looks good toherwise though, will be very speedy. Good choice of video card, memory and cpu.

The only thing I could possibly suggest is that you go for an SSD instead. But that i purely an extra if you can afford it really, its more just a luxuary. It will affect load times significantly though if your working with large flash projects.

For me I tend to keep my main project (tends to be autodesk inventor, unity 3D pro and UDK) on my SSD, all other projects stay on my cavier. Just helps a bit with speed, although it would be perfectly fine working just off the harddrive.
