I'd go to a local place and have them build one - Edit 1

I'm looking to buy a new computer and I want to buy a comprehensive unit that has all components installed because I am not an engineer, a computer geek or someone who aspires to be either. I have a Dell but I am disgusted with the performance of this machine, the quality of the parts and the fact that Dell can't even offer a terabyte of memory on its hard drives. I am therefore trying to figure out which company to switch to. I am NOT switching to a Mac - I hate Apple computers as much as I love their non-computer products and can't stand using my wife's iMac to try to do stuff.

I am also trying to minimize wires, interested in just buying an HD TV for a monitor and looking at a printer that would work off a wireless router.

I am not looking to economize with substandard parts.

What computer company/website would you recommend?

However I'm not very well versed when it comes to computer stores in NYC, so I can't recommend one like that. But after explaining your requirements and approximate budget they should be able to put something together for you. A small store will also use brand name components, as opposed to a large corporation ordering their own stuff.

You'll also be able to bring it in for quick fixes, should something go wrong. Plus I'd trust the people at a computer place to be more knowledgeable than those working at a chain store like Best buy et al.
