I found this assignment very interesting. I didn’t know a lot about these parts and what they did until this assignment. Tigerdirect.com was a huge resource for this assignment. That is where I found all these computer hardware and software devices. I had some problems with the picture uploading into wordpress at first but I figured it out.
My computer would cost $945.99. That seems a little high for a desktop computer. You can buy them a lot cheaper at several retail stores. I’m not exactly sure if I have every component in my post. I’m sure I am missing some minor things. If anyone reads this and has any suggestions, please let me know. I thought this assignment was very fun and it maybe have sparked an interest for me to do this one day. I know this would be a very challenging project in the future but I think it would also be rewarding as well.
