Heh, there are two rules about buying computers:

• It is never a good time to buy
• The price for anything will always go down a lot shortly after you buy it

I think the E6600 box is a good purchase.  I know it will beat the crap out of any of the AMD boxes you're considering, but that is partly because it has better periphs.  Once you make your decision and send the order, do yourself a favor: don't look at any prices or catalogues for at least six months, it will only break your heart.
