That sounds like a bunch of parts to assemble into a desktop or workstation. The question was about laptops - but it's irrelevant - In my experience, buying used systems gets you similar specs for about half the cost. If you're willing to accept a system that's a couple years older, in terms of specs and remaining lifespan. http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/Laptops/20263/cat.html?sort=Recommended Get your used macbook air or macbook pro for $700, thinkpad T520 for $390, latitude E5420 for $275 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
