That has certainly given me a lot of ideas. Buying a ready made box would be good but I haven't found anything to match my specs yet will keep looking. Thank you for all the suggestions both of people to buy from and those to avoid. Stripes On 3 April 2012 17:08, Russell Coker <russell@coker.com.au> wrote:

Can anyone on the list give me any recommendations for online stores to buy computer parts or for that matter warnings of places to avoid.

Static Ice is a good way of getting the best prices, if you are going to get no useful service you might as well get the best price.

But generally I recommend buying systems from Grays Online.  You can get refurbished name-brand systems with warranty for very low prices - cheaper than a white-box system.  Building systems stopped being fun for me a long time ago, so I'd rather just get a system that works.
