k, i understan ur position, i got school too. you need flash,not preformance, and to make a photoized worklog. so that means u need a camera. a worklog on a clear case looks like $#!t, so get that little thing with the windows, and photo every step, from out of box, to runnin xp showing pics. screenshots on system specs r good too. so i figure u have a 800dollar bujet on it. before i get started on sugestions for good lookin articles, i got a few questions. is a teacher or a techie gonna grade it? if techie, then go balls to the wall with flash, if a teacher who dont know crap about a pc, go even further! is this a end term project, like if u pass or not, and finally, if u gonna take it to show it in person/use the computer to show the pics, then you want something small, light, and, most of all DURABLE. dont want that **** falling apart in your backseat when you go there. Basic components of a desktop: Case, MOBO, PS, DVD Drive, Graphics Card, HDD, Processor, and some lights. ill do some research on some parts, be back a lil later with a sugested parts list
