Summary: Solid Book
Comment: Im typing this review from the PC I just built with help from this book. I would have given it 5 stars only if they had made it more clear that this was not for the absolute beginners. This book is for intermediate to advanced users, but even if you are a beginner there's still a chance you'd be satisfied with it. You have to refer to some background knowledge to understand some of the concepts and terminology, but by in large thats really not that big a problem if you're not prone to being easily frustrated. The bottom line is if you're patient, then you'll get the job done, but if you're looking for a quick build, then dude.....just buy a Dell. Here are the basic specs for the system I built:
Tower case (love the big casing)
Pentium 4 processor
256 MB DDR Ram
64 MB video card
Intel Mobo
Windows 2000

Summary: THE BEST DO-IT-YOUR-SELF PC BUILDING BOOK EVER!!!
Comment: I was amazed at how easy it was to build my own PC with the help of this highly organized and well-written book. After reading throught the book once, I had enough information to decide on the type of system that I really needed; assembling it was a snap because of the detailed instructions with pictures. I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes putting together their own customized computer system!

Summary: excellent but dated
Comment: Excellent book, great photos. Fantastic for DIY.
However, the year 2004 is creeping on us, so an update would be nice, especially with amd64.
