At any rate, if you don't want to build something yourself, then yeah... Dell is probably your best bet. I dislike Dell, but their product is quality... it's just an unfounded personal beef I have with them.
As for a second video card, you are probably looking at a spec regarding SLI or Crossfire. These will be PCI Express slots. As far as hooking up a VCR [sic] to your system, you'll more likely be looking at a standard PCI card (not a video card slot card... meaning most likely PCI-e). Most boards have one or two still, though they aren't as common as they used to be.
The SCSI drives... I'm sure they are FAST enough. They probably don't have enough disk space to worry about though. Ten year old SCSI drives are often still faster than ten month old SATA drives. *shrug* Unless you get Raptor X's. Regardless, it' more likely the space rather than speed. Plus, SCSI just never caught on in the home PC market. Still going strong in the business sector though. As for ZIP... *shrug* Unless you have a lot of data stored on ZIP, it's not a huge loss. 100/250MB isn't that big of a deal these days with 8GB DVD-RWs around.
