how to build a computer from scratch

This really helpful tutorial on how to set your Computer from the scratch. In fact I have gained a lot from this article, I thought I had known everything but just realized that more is still missing after reading this.
 
A nice little article on building a computer.
May I recommend a book to any one learning to understand & building computers.
" Upgrading & repairing PC's" by Scott Mueller's printed by Que publishers.

It would have to be one of the best reference books to have and is constantly upgraded in editions over the years to stay in pace with technology advances.
 
Um.. "Building a computer is just like legos, if a part seems like it will fit, it probably is the right spot for the part." - That's a joke, right? I mean... it's a computer, not Lego; they're not anything alike, and if you plonk a part in a place that seems similar, you'll probably just f**k it up, so this is probably one the daftest things I've seen on this site, so far. Now I understand why all these kids are begging mom 'n pops for computer parts. lol

"It is as easy as legos, especially with my guide." - Lol... 10 years dealing with computer hardware and I can comfortably say that I've never claimed it was as easy as Lego, and for the record, when I was an ickle kid, I was playing with Meccano as well as Lego, so I know the difference. :p

Aside from that, the guide seems good, although I saw no safety measures or measures to keep from damaging components, which are essential bits of knowledge when it comes to building; I skimmed the guide, so I apologise if I missed these somewhere. It's fine and dandy to build a computer, but doing it right is entirely a different matter, and that analogy goes for most things in life.
