prices of computers today

[omen]

this is simply a list of components that work together to create a "pc"
some of the pc's are build using cheapest available coponents that may cause compatability problems (needing bios updates and special configurations)

I am shocked that you can build a pc for 150

Thank god this guy actually admits to the existence of Australia!
The quote in his signature really is TRUE!!!!

Anyway back on topic,
The 400 pound PC you're looking at there. Like, wow. I'm looking to build something sorta similar in September, with a better motherboard HDD and ram, and its gonna cost me like $669 in Australia. The parts are a little upper class but its the same CPU in the end. Why does Australia have to be so expensive?!!!

And 5 years ago, my dad payed $1700 for a piece of junk Pentium 4 2.4 GHZ with 512MB, and now i can get like 2GB ram, an awesome case HDD and GFX card, and two of the CPU's he has (well better) for $669. Gotta laugh at that....
