Introduction
I can imagine that some people don't have a glue when it come to the insides of a PC, so I'll try hard to make it sound easy. But first the question, WHY? Well building your own PC is going to cost far less than a ready made PC, and you can tune it to your personal specification.
Cost
Well it all depends on what you want. Go for the highest technology and you'll hit the £700 mark easily, but go for a simple word processor and you'll get change from £400. You can also skip out on things like a printer, monitor, CD-ROM, floppy drive hard drive and scanner: All these bring down he price buy up to £300, if you already have a PC.
Ready PC
Here's a list of various categories, for a PC and their prices. RED items are ones which you already have if you already have a PC, so minus their cost.
