Ive been building pc's forever, and the hassle just aint worth it.
sony vaio's are SOO SOLID, that for 1499, that box, rocks.
yeah, another 500 or so for a decent sony flat screen jacks it up, but
as he said, that's just a billboard website away ;)
anyway, building a computer is like building a house, ill let a
professional do both, no one is perfect, however a warranty rocks.
but, then again, I am a fairly lazy mother effer, and ...well... if it
aint jayme, or a golf course, I tend not to make time for it...
DUDE, whats up with your boys...KOBE and friends are HURTING!!!

Subject: RE: building a pc VERY slowly....
My feeling is that you pay a huge markup. Now, if you are not too
hardware inclined and want a hassle free computer buy a prebuilt machine
with a warranty. If you are into hobbying with it, build it yourself.
You will save hundreds of dollars and can get top of the line
components; whereas a lot of pre fab systems come with some good
components but also junk.
Also,a warranty is nice, but the truth of the matter is that unless it
pays shipping for the return of parts, you can look forward to shelling
out $50 to ship a monitor, $30-$40 to ship a tower, etc... When I buy
components, I get individual warranties on the components and always
have some crappy spares laying around in case I need to send something
in (happened once with an ATI gfx card).
I am just a huge fan of saving money, learning about hardware, and being
able to choose the best components for the $.
Just my $0.02
