Oh and since i built it I only put about 10 hours on it max. | still probably looks like crap, stop complaining and get a job

| Re: might sell a computer The way the world works is that goods deprecate over time. Computers are a good example of this, and so are cars. You have to change your strategy in the market when the market changes. Right now, you have flooding interest of people who don't want to buy the computer as a whole, but buy the parts of it. I'd say take what you can get.
And if your "future" girlfriend just wants to use you for your money, then uhh, that's not a good thing.  However, don't take it from me. You are young, and you will learn...

| Re: might sell a computer How can you have 1200 post here and not get it... that computer, no mater what you do, is not going to get you more then 600, and thats only if you sell it to a moron.
Computers are one of the worst investments you can make (worse then cars, as a car will probably keep over 50% of its worth in a year, while a computer can loose up to 75% in the same time frame). Sorry.

| Re: might sell a computer The Value of Technology Depreciates at a very fast rate, I agree with FadingTheory when he says you will probably not get more then 600 for it. |
