No, if you do it yourself you can get much better

[paddy-stone]

IMO no. But if you absoloutely have to have a prebuilt it's not the worst I've seen... at least the parts seem like they will be standard and upgradeable, and they tell you what parts.

If you decide you might want to build it yourself, have a look at this list to start with, and adjust it for choice, then post back and quote me and I'll see if it's a good fit.
