I can't believe all this talk about building PCs. It's taken me three weeks just to hook up all the peripherals to my new PC and transferring software from the old to the new.

My new PC had a defective internal Zip drive and the new one was improperly installed by the technician. I had to remove it and change the jumper with the help of a support tech on the phone. With all the problems I've had just plugging the dang stuff into the wall and getting it to work, I simply can't imagine the potential problems of building a computer.

Maybe it was best that my day job was as a carpetologist. :)

P. S. Sorry, tekboy. :)

I friend ordered a motherboard over the internet, I don't know who made it but it came with two little daughter boards, one if you chose Intel and another if you chose AMD.
