After fooling with a small computer maker for nearly six months (them telling me "you're next" for most of that time), I decided to build my own: Plll 1.2 GIG, 1.5 GIG RAM, 266MHz, new 300 watt case and all for under $400. I then spent the next five days reinstalling the OS and other programs and another four days ducking blue screens of death. All's well that ends well. I'm up and running a machine I know inside out, and one that is performing flawlessly. DELL, HP; who dat?!
