                NICE WORK!

                I thought I did good with the tigerdirect bare bones kit at $280 a couple years ago.

                I'm contemplating an external hardrive to dump everything to, then pulling the second hard drive, and putting win7 on it.

                  Barebones kits are nice, & cheap.

                  My next build for 'me' is gonna be an 8 core AMD multi-media server with 2 1tb HD's that dual boots Linux & Windows 7.

                    Ghetto PC Build 2.0

                    Dad's Cheap PC was such a hit with friends & family I decided to build another one...


                    Crappy old AMD socket 370 PC case circa 2000.













                    Much better in black.











                    Thor approves.











                    Before & After, day & night difference.





                    Next I have to decide what motherboard to use.
