    If you say so. I decided not to do it myself a long time ago. I did the math as well. I live in California. You have to account for the taxes. etc.

    Ok...that makes more sense. What's it, like 8% tax? I guess the warranty etc. count for something also. I've always built my own rig so i'm certainly biased towards doing it that way .
