Can't tell if you are serious or being sarcastic... Assuming you are serious...

You would be hard pressed to get all those parts for under $300 much less an OS...

Current best price for no name on pricewatch is $252 for Complete AMD Sempron 3100+ Windows CD COA 128Mb 20GB IHard Drive 32xCD-ROM

The Compaq kicks that one's butt with 4 times the RAM, 8 times the hard drive, and DVD+/-RW for $50 less.

No takers yet, so it will probably go back some time Sunday afternoon...
