I think they are only for pre-order right now and have been delayed a couple times already.  I assume you need at least a free PCI-E slot but don't know what the system requirements are.  They were showing them at CES so maybe check some of the articles from there to see if they have any info?

I heard about that but it too expensive to buy. More than $2000.

There are supposed to be a few ways you can configure these so there's no specific hardware requirements. You can run them internally as PCI x1 or externally via USB. We'll see how true that is when pre-orders actually start shipping!

I was going to order one, but see no real shipment date in sight. :/

Yeah, people really give BFL a hard time for missing ship dates and commitments.  I've never ordered anything from them so I don't know...but the forums are lit up with people saying not so nice things about them.

hello, you can mine with your computer, linux or windows system with a pci express slot. It's replace a graphic card slot. If you want one and use your computer with, be sure you have one integrated graphic card... or use a remote control client and another computer.
