If you are including the cost of your labor then of course its more expensive for you! Some chinese kids charge way less than $50/hr.
For me building systems gets me intimate knowledge with what components I am running. Oh and if shit hits the fan I don't have to look for proprietary drivers on the Dell or HP support site.
Pre-built just never has the right combination of components. And if I am not building a new comp but just getting new mobo, cpu, ram, gpu then i save money by keeping my hdd, dvdr, case and psu. I have to admit though, big box can get monitors for super cheap. But I don't usually skimp on monitor purchases and go for higher end models.
Also, if you wanna geek out to other douchebag nerds you can call out what components and brands you are rolling.
If you actually dont give a shit about the computer you are running and just wanna get shit done then you obviously have different priorities than those you criticize.
I use a SpaceNavigator for 3d modeling and animation and I can't go back to not having it. Having a tactile device to control views speeds up everything so much and is just natural to use vs keyboard shortcuts and keyboard mouseclick combos.
It's not that most people are genuinely normal and weirdos have to wear camouflage to fake it. It's that most people wear camouflage, and weirdos refuse to do so.
How do you think things will play out if enough people DMCA enough posted material from the labels? Even if it has no backing. Just like if a million people sent takedowns?
is that 11 cents to pay it off in a year? why not pay it off in more time? and just get the government to force low interest rates on loans for building nuclear plants?
Apple is like, holding your dick so you can piss right? But what you didn't notice, because you were too happy that your dick was even getting touched, is that they got their other hand on your balls and can just rip them off when necessary. Microsoft just fucks you in the ass, and for some guys that feels good you know?

he just thinks that the tech will come soon where you can print devices out like you can print OLED screens on a substrate.
Actually the Mayans were right about 2012. They of course had no clue that the end of the days would be brought upon via BSOD
Though I do notice that the ones who generalize people as douchebags do so most hastily...
no one has mentioned this little comparison: Toilets vs. The Street.

is it like a football laser fight?
so instead of talking to a girl or using your looks, your only option is to drop trow whenever you enter a room?
you can wear a red shirt.
they should allow other boats to come grab the bycatch directly off the boat in the water. This might solve the problem for now.
Yea "don't you know" is like part of their syntax for the midwest markup language MML. It's the same as in HTML.
It's not the size that matters. It's how you use it ;p
I'm thinking Standard Oil?

Cuz the wierdos are just Keepin' It Real.

don't we all wish we were 14 again?

You haven't seen his girlfriend.
Neither has he.
this is how shit gets lost in history and events are distorted!
Doesn't everyone here know that there are 3 types of evil? Chaotic, Neutral and Lawful!
I aim to please ;p

so George Lucas got it wrong, Midichlorians are in your digestive system. That's why The Force can give you that gut feeling.
nobody likes to fuck a dead fish... (queue dead fish fuckers, I know you are out here on /.!)
