Including monitor, mouse keyboard etc? What OS? Just looking at that...probably around $300.

ill put it this way, people appraise my computer, with no accessories, at only 300$, even though the PSU itself still goes for 120$ and it has vista home premium on it

compared to other items you might sell such as a car, where you can buy it and sell it for close to what you paid a month later, computers hold very little value. say you go buy a $1500 PC and try to sell it a few months later, a HUGE amount of its value would be lost in that small amount of time. computers are an expensse, not an investment
