Bought a compaq once, that was enough to get me to build the next one. Will never ever stop homebuilding.... total control of everyh component that goes into it... much better value(better components for cheaper price. No dealing with mindless computer store employees who get a sort of glazed look in there eyes when ever I mention the term CAS 2, but light up when they start talking about their 4 year extended warrantee available for puchase What a joke.
