I think you made out like a fat rat dude!

I couldn't put together a system that cheap and make any money myself.

I'd like to know how they can sell that so low. Unless they are using very low end boards etc.

Still sounds like you got a heck of a deal though. Curious to see how it works out for you.

Well the computer rocks.  I think they were selling it so cheap because they only had about 20 and it was the BIG boxing day sale.  I thought it was a good deal and I couldnt have made it any cheaper either.  Score!

Yeah you made out with not just a good deal...that was a great deal!  If you say that the computer rocks, then that's all you need.  Although I'm not familiar with the Cierco brand.  Is that a local brand over there in Canada or is it something that a shop put together?

I think it is just a clone name.  They have a nice case and everything but nothing too fantastic.  I personally never heard of them before either but there not that bad.
