Fry’s is a dangerous place for someone like me.  You can find all the parts you need to build a computer from scratch or upgrade one you already have.  I’ve only ever gone into a Fry’s once without buying something (something must have been wrong with me that day). 

But now it’s reached an absurd level.  I’ve got a friend who went there tonight and called me to tell me about the current deal on a motherboard and processor (2000+ Athlon XP with MB for $69.00).  So I got him to buy it for me and I’ll pay him for it tomorrow.  I’m going to use it to upgrade my game system.  However, that will leave me with a 900MHz Athlon and motherboard.  I have a spare case and hard drive.  I may build another system from the cast-off parts (although I have no idea what I’ll do with it).  But it seems a waste to just let the parts sit there.  Maybe I can find someone who’s using an old computer and needs/wants something a little faster.

I’m almost tempted to think that drugs would be cheaper than computers…
