Pretty darned good deal on a nice HTPC, considering a Q6600 alone easily goes for $140 used :
Gateway GM5485E

$399.99 with free shipping, $384.99 after applying the usual 5% off coupon (max $15 off)
Ignore the upper specs. Called the Buy.com CS and they confirmed that it is a quad-core system. Monitor is NOT included.

Some people are apparently saying that you could get 9% Live CashBack on this deal, which would make it sizzling! Also don't forget to use your Buy.com VISA if you have one (3% CashBack).

Green for you, this is cheaper than if you bought all the parts and assembled.

Looks good!
Can we add a DCT to this OEM HTPC?
That would make it UBER HOT!!!

Does it come with a pre-installed operating system? I did not see any reference in the description.

Will this support a 4850 or 8800?

Don't see why not, as long as the power supply is up to it (which I don't know). From the Gateway pics though, it looks to be a standard ATX PSU, so the worst that can happen is that I'll have to pop in one of those $5/FAR Ultras that are sitting in my garage

Anyway to get any sort of extended warranty on this? I know of a few people looking to buy a system.
