Check these specs for Vegas 9a desktop
This is a Dell going for about $900. Figured I'd add a Black Magic Intensity Pro and a video drive.

Triple the RAM and I like it. What will you do for monitors? An why do you need a Blackmagic card?

Maybe I don't understand how the Blackmagic cards work. How does it help with color grading?

Now that I'm researching it more, maybe it won't work for color correction. The theory would be that it gives you hdmi or component out to a broadcast monitor or hdtv. The BM site doesn't say anything specific about using intensity for CC, although forum members seem to use it that way -- similar to how the Matrox MXO's are used.
