Have you ever built your own computer?

I have put together a lot of computers over the years and taught many students how to do it correctly. But even after building hundreds of computers I still find that I run into problems with new ones. What was the first computer you put together? How old were you? Did you have to call anyone for assistance?

It's a lot of fun and I enjoyed it while I was doing. The thing I think I liked the most was the fact that there is a never ending supply of new technology to play with.

I think it's about the same price here for a configuration like you have built. What is 22K. I realize it's currency but what is K thanks for your response.

I think it's pretty cool to take a bunch of parts and in just a few minutes you can be communicating with the world and kickin' someone's butt half way around the globe.
