Sure, but not everyone needs a super computer.

The computer looks OK to me. Would you not be comfortable with building your own?

don;t know how much that is in canadian dollars but isn't that like $1200 Canadian or something? I donno the currency conversions.

Ok I looked it up. it is $948 Canadian dollars. That is a little pricey I think but maybe stuff costs more where your from.
