What hardware do I need to make a 300dpi 2000mm x 1200mm illustrator files rich with 2 x layers of jpeg artwork and 1 x layer of vector?

I suspect the final files for printing will be in excess 1GB but will wait and see (printer has requested orginal ai files). Our current machines are not up to the job so we need something new very soon. Any advice about hardware and also about making the files would be very welcome!

Pick up anything with a modern processor and a whole lotta RAM. A fast disk (SSD or 7200RPM+) will go a long way too.

You don't specify platform or budget but the Mac Pro tower comes to mind. Now available with a 12-core processor and up to 64GB(!!!) of RAM. That would do it.
