I bought your book a couple of weeks ago. I based my machine off the budget game machine from Sharkey's Extreme, except I added more memory. It works great. I had a couple of problems but had no trouble figuring them out.

While your book didn't exactly parallel the computer I built, the basic information was very helpful. I did cheat a little. I found a place that would bundle the mb, processor and memory I wanted, and assemble and test them for $10 extra. The individual components were also a little more expensive than I could have gotten them with more aggressive shopping, but it was first time I have done this, and it seemed reasonable to avoid any problems.

Very helpful website, I am going to give the url to a coworker who wants to build his own machine.
