Our firm's IT guy made this for me. I was tired of the firm's computer hanging up so I went off program and got my own. I'm cutting and pasting from his email with the links, so if they don't work any longer, I'm sorry.
Good afternoon! Ive specced out a monster of a machine for you, its priced around $1015 without mouse/kb or speakers. If you would like some new ones I can find you a good deal. Here is the part list;
DVD drive/burner; http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...04&ignorebbr=1
Case; http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...33&ignorebbr=1
I can try to find something more understated if you wish, but this is the best case ive found in years, especially for the money, I would compare it to cases worth three times more.
