That's the very question FiringSquad tries to answer in the sequel to last year's short but popular workstation building article. This time, they've went with a "no-budget, but don't waste money" approach. There are a dozen products reviewed in the article, some never before reviewed on the 'net, and this time, there's no system building detail left untouched. Discussed are AC line conditioners, 2D graphics performance, and more. This more than 12,000 word article is the most detailed article ever in its genre. "

Why spend a few thousand dollars on a gaming computer that will be obsolete in a year? Just plunk down $99-$250 for a gaming console. No more whirling of 15 case fans and sucking of A/C power like an SUV.
Whatever happened to having things small and quiet?

Don't worry about this guy, based on his posting history he's the worst kind of FUD-spreading Microsoft apologist.
