anyone want a computer built?

[PhilMcL]

hey everyone i know my way around computers pretty well and can build custom computers for much cheaper than they would cost from a company.

for example i just built a gaming rig that can run half life 2 lost coast at 80 fps, for $1200. this would be in excess of 2k from say, gateway.

if anyone needs a new computer, i wouldnt charge much and would love to help.

Might help if you gave your general location and if your willing to ship finished projects.

Perhaps you could also specialize in buidling PCs custom built for audio projects. Such as a system with a real good soundcard for transferring vinyl to CD, or for hooking up a receiver to the PC.

well, yeah, if thats what someone wants, absolutely :music:

the keyword here is "custom".

I've built several, and a friend wanted me to build him one.
He thought I could build one cheaper than the $399 Dell specials he sees on TV.
Maybe he should just get a WebTV thing and be done with it.
Or a $399 Dell special.
I like building them. It's nice to splurge on the stuff you use (soundcard) and forget about the stuff you don't (modem?)
