It's difficult to explain. But trust me, it's definitely not something you should look down upon people for while you still can't understand why it happens =P
But once you do, feel free.

o.o the only nontirivial part of building a computer is putting on thermal grease, which is pretty easy as well. Also, with Socket 775 boards, sometimes fitting the fan on was painful.

My first experience with computer hardware was putting ram into a 100 mhz cyrix II, into ram slots hidden under a PSU in a case barely larger than an imac. It was horrible.
The biggest rule about computers is keep yourself grounded ie touch the case. Don't wear baggy pants/shirt and rub against carpet. Don't let cats/dogs near it. As long as you stay static free it's hard to damage it if you're careful. CPU's can be a bit of a bitch but new slots and such are much better than the goddamn athlon xp's that I had to use screw drivers over the course of 15 minutes to get the heatsinks off/on.

Hey I remember a realllly long time ago Desler posted a link to an archived version of CC from the old template or whatever, good stuff from like 2002. I wonder if this is still saved somewhere? I remember being able to look through old forums and stuff it was so epic... Wasn't CC hacked or something and lots of stuff was lost some year?
also I remember when starcraft.org and infocepter.net started up... If I remember correctly some people here did work for those two sites as well.
and another oldschool dude I remember (forgot his screen name) he used to do alot of stuff, including a star wars mod if I remember correctly and he always had a Star Wars avatar of Wedge Antilles. that dude was awesome. His screen name was something Antilles or something... argh I wish I could remember it was from like 10 years ago loool.
