Ok...you PC building dudes.....
« on: November 12, 2001, 04:03:00 AM »
Do any of you live in the Dallas area?  I want to build a new system, but I dont know what to buy or how to do it all.  I would like to hook up with someone local that can help me pick the right components and then guide me through the build-up so that I dont kill anything or anybody.   :)

Willing to pay said individual in beer and wings for their help.   :D

Sorry, up here in Maine.  You guys have better prices, better weather, and prettier women.  

Perhaps we can arrange and trade   :D

Hey Sling... even I managed to do it.

You can too.

In fact, I just ordered some more bits to rebuild an old slow computer into a bit of a hotrod.

The Force will be with you.

Good luck.


Besides, you get stuck, somebody here will help ya.

Can't say as I agree on the prettier woman thing LePaul, but what do you expect from a flatlander?   ;)
