Unless you have a heavy need, you could probably buy a system off the shelf for less money, and the manufacturer has already figured out what hardware is compatible with what. Be sure that it is Linux compliant. Most off the shelf systems are built with Windows in mind, and might create problems putting Linux in them.

I can get your visa application ready to file in two weeks (except for required documents) for $699. It will take you a lot longer to do it yourself and the applicant won't be a resident of Canada until you do. You might also make a dumb mistake!
