i have rebuilt at least ten old dell computers for our school's computer club sale. myself and two other kids must have spent every school day for several months disassembling, reassembling and imaging.

however, the school didn't let us sell them, and loaded all of the computers we had fixed (more than 50 of them) into a truck, and headed for the dump. so now our club has no money and all of the we spent was wasted.

i'd like to buy my own parts someday and build my own computer.

any mods you've done in the process?

I've got wrapped cables a window and cold cathode lights

then I lost interest and used the computer for its functionality =/

nope, and i don't plan to. i don't know ANYTHING about programming, building, and such, so it would probably be a giant waste of money.

Nah, some of my friends usually do that though because you can build a better computer or something like that.

Takes alot of times but after you build one, you learn alot about how everything works.

No, but I wish I could. My uncle and dad could do it though - they're both technicians.
