Shop Till You Drop! Yeah. I know you're not supposed to shop online using company resources. But, if you're going to do it, you may as well save some money.

Free Computer case, keyboard, speakers and mouse...

Don't know how many folks build their own computers on here, but Tiger Direct has a good deal on a barebones kit; $59.99 with $60 in rebates, or $0 plus shipping and taxes. I just ordered it myself, and you can find it here:

This is a mid-tower computer case (with built-in handle), 350 W power supply, keyboard, mouse and speakers. The manufacturer is Soyo, and it is pretty good stuff. I had a very similar case earlier, except it was a micro-ATX case.

You will have to fill out three $20 mail in rebates. In my experience with both Soyo and Tiger Direct the rebates always come. You will also have to pay shipping, which for me using UPS ground was $21. If your state has tax, (mine doesn't) you will need to figure that in as well! Should work out to $25 total cost, after rebates.

I will be using mine for building a system to run Fedora Core Linux on, and then possibly sell later... Hope someone on here can use this info!
