This is almost worth getting excited about, but there's a few things to remember:

1. Dual-CPUs have no effect on gaming. An Athlon XP 3200+ will slaughter dual 3.0 GHz Xeons at gaming.

2. The dual video card thing is nice, but Alienware has a monopoly on the dual PCI-E motherboards like Jericho said. They can't be bought seperately, either...you gotta buy the full $5,000 PC to get it.

Cool concept, though! I remember seeing my friend's dual Voodoo 2's linked together on the back of his PC. I blew my load all over his computer! Ok, I didn't, but it was still really cool.
