I was planning to buy a system pre-built to my specs from my favourite retailer, but they just went under a few days before I placed the order. So I ordered all the parts from someone else, with an equally good reputation. But last week when all the parts arrived, the motherboard and HDD were both dead. I just posted them back off yesterday but honestly... I think this will be my last PC. Next time it's going to be either a notebook or a Mac (or both in one). I just don't think it's worth the trouble anymore. I did much the same just a week ago, and with incredibly similar specs on the new PC as well.
