it would be nice to have a building a computer tutorial with pictures and the like, if anyone has time

Did Preator already make one?? He's made everything, I think that just by reading all of the "101" topics you kind of get the hint, but maybe that would be cool if someone made one.

No, he hasnt made one YET, the question of making one has been batted back and forth for some time, i think it could well be in the pipeline very soon, but not quite in existence yet.

Im sure if you do a few searches on the web you'll find a computer building walkthrough, or at least basic steps and tips/hints.

I found this page which might be of use in the mean time: http://www.pcmech.com/build.htm at first view it looks very comprehensive and extremely detailed with lots of high res pics too.
