re: #115 ckkatz

I have been building my own desktops since the 1990’s. In the past 20 years I really do not feel that I have saved much money on any initial build.

It is on the repairs, rebuilds, and upgrades that I can save money, time and aggravation. Particularly when the primary disk fails.

I also like the feeling of confidence that when something craps out, I usually can fix it.

My computer nut buddies would never think of buying something off the rack…
