[extropy-chat] Computers as you like

[Brian Shores]

The absolute best place that I have found to start looking for good
quality low-cost computer components is www.pricewatch.com and go from
there. www.newegg.com is one of the best/cheapest retailers out there
you will see. :)

Well, I'm exploring starting the business concept I had a bit ago about
hardwood computer cases that look like furniture rather than toasters,
as a hobby to start with. I'd like to ask the list membership for leads
on good low cost sources for PC boards, chips, components, etc... I've
been out of building PCs for a couple years and need to catch up... I
also need design specs for current motherboard architectures, to design
these cases around...
