This.

Nowadays, it is almost ALWAYS easier and less expensive to build your own machine, than it is to find one at a store with all the specs you need. These days, unless you're in the market for a laptop, building your own is the best way to go. Whoever said it's like Legos, you're almost dead on with that description: not all Legos need an operating system...LOL!

(P.S.: I work at a computer repair/sales shop here in Monroe. Shoot me a PM if you're interested in getting one built for you.)
