Hooray for Legba's new PC!
I haven't had a new PC in ages. I built my current machine WITH MY BARE HANDS. And a swiss army knife with a screwdriver attachment. I think I stole most of the RAM from my former employers. It was quite fun, actually - the building, not the theft, though I can't deny I gained a certain amount of satisfaction from that - and involved a lot of swearing.
There's really nothing quite so satisfying as building a computer from scratch, doubly so if you build a superslick 'puter out of the carcasses of the fallen, old & infirm.
Congratulations. I can revel in the celebration also. I replaced my 6 year old Dell with a whopping 96megs of RAM with a shiny new cheap Dell. I can actually open two windows at once. It's amazing.
I need a new PC. It's six years old and bits stop working forcing me to patch around them. My MP3 player has a bigger hard drive.
And it runs Windows 98 *shudder*.
Perhaps someone can advise me: Which is cheaper, homemade or store-bought?
