Default Re: Where\'s the best place to buy a new computer?

People don't build their own computer because it is cheaper. They build their own so they have full control over the components put in the system. (Because they buy from the OEMs in volume, Dell can get components cheaper than you can). E.g., Dell used to have a terrible selection of video cards, so you only had a choice of the top of the line or the bottom of the line, no in between. I've heard that they've improved since then.
