I've decided I was going to build myself a new desktop.
(Prices are from
http://www.newegg.com)
I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit CD, and I'm going to make a partition with ubuntu for a secondary OS.
I wanted a Solid State Drive for my programs/OS, but that might be a little too expensive.
If anyone knows of websites where I could get better items for cheaper, or the same price, I'd appreciate you add that as well.

That totals to around 650 bucks. I probably won't finish making this PC till the end of summer when I get the sufficient funds from my summer job. I've got about 200 on me that I could use to buy things I need, but I probably won't spend much of anything until around mid-august.
I'm not an avid PC gamer so no need for a graphic card that's crazy good.
P.S. - Anything I'm missing? I've got a network card, sound card, and CD/DVD drive.
