That was the final straw -- it wasn't really cheaper. I'm not a gamer so
what I would select would amount to a mid-range box, adequate but nothing
special. It would have expansion capabilities with slots that I never got
around to using. In the end it would be a Dell without Dell's volume
breaks on components.
Chris is right. The fun part was the research and component selection
until it wasn't. I keep looking at the nice Antec case and PS under the
desk and thinking someday... Then I look at the Picos and Arduinos on top
of the bench and thing but first...
