Comment: I've got some PC components at home and I'm going to put them in a normal case and then sell the PC. I'm not sure how much (in £ preferably) I should sell it for. I know you can get similar spec PCs brand new for £500. This is the spec: AMD Duron 1800 processor
512MB RAM
120GB HDD
16x DVD drive
DVD-RW drive
SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 Digital sound card
128MB ATI Radeon 9600SE graphics card
Windows XP and SUSE Linux Professional 9.0 pre-installed 15" llyama Vision Master 350 CRT monitor
Hewlett Packard DeskJet 610C printer
2 Speakers

Reply: (edit)Market rates are irrelevant. In Britain, stuff is far expensive. I'd say if it is near market price, go for it. I wouldnt' bother with SUSE linux on it though. Anyone that uses linux could no doubt build their own machine and most who needs a machine built are unlikely to want to mess with Linux. Just a thought. Some things put some people off. Gets too techie for them.

Reply: (edit)XxxFrancisxxxUSA, Yeah you're rite the market rate is irrelevant. I'm on the other side of Atlantic so I sought the dollar equivalent of the Pound for my own curiosity. i_XpUser
