Go to www.pricewatch.com to find parts.  There are lists by type and by
manufacturer.  It lists the lowest to the highest prices, shipping &
handling, and you can clickthrough to the seller's web site.  Keep in mind
that buying sensitive parts on the Internet creates a big headache returning
them if they are defective.  Been there & done that.


I have been looking at  the documentation on the "Free PC Tech" about
building a basic PC.  I'm ready to begin my own.  I've been inside my
current PC and am really thinking that I could build one as well, instead of
purchasing a new computer.

My 1st (very basic) question....where, on the web?  or from catalogs? do you
go to get the parts?  I have a CompUSA store within 2 hours, but I'd really
like to get everything off of the web.  Is this a viable approach?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
