Two things:
1) For a software guy who has only ever been inside a machine a few times (to add RAM or move around PCI cards), how hard is it to actually build a machine from the ground up? As far as I can see, everything seems to fit only where it belongs, and it'd just be a matter of making sure all of my hardware is combatible, but is there anything specific I should avoid?
2) Tony: I have an ever-growing archive of computers (you'd be amazed how many people would simply rather buy a new one than fix their old one, even if it's less than 2 years old). What kinds of parts do you need in order to build a home for this lovely little forum of ours?
