I'd go with what others have said, except no hardisks, instead a 4GB/s Fibre Channel storage adapter (8GB or 10GB in a couple of years), wired up to a RAID array full of 15k RPM disks (either SAS or FC), which should give enough speed to do pretty much anything (2x that of an x-serve), with a direct point to point fibre link, it'd also have a good low latency with the stupidly high bandwidth. Then I'd buy a cheep box to act as a Linux server: http://www.sun.com/servers/highend/sunfire_e25k/specs.xml
i am kinda curious on why a very rich person would require 1TB+ in storage considering he dosen't have to download all his films and music! lol if he wants to play games then i would get a ''Sony KDS-60A2000'' thats a 60'' screen that is also HD 1080i Then the usual SLi 8800GTX's water cooled, then i would go for a Intel Quad core under phase cooling clocked to the nuts. oh and a perfect audio set up!! no X-fi at all, just go pro with an external amp.
