Do you know, I've never done that myself.

I mean, I've opened up computers any number of times, frantically plugged, unplugged and rearranged bits, and on one occasion changed a motherboard (which, to be fair, is very nearly taking apart and rebuilding the entire thing). But I've never actually put together a previously nonexistent new PC out of a set of component parts. Life's just too short, when the company that sells me the parts will also do the assembly themselves and make sure the result works before I hand over any money! :-)
