hrm...

i don't know how to word it so i figured custom build pc is good...


is listing specific hardware a good idea?

should i start listing like mobo, hard drive, video cards, memory, cases, ps, etc...???

i just don't think the average employer will know or care what brand or parts of the pc.

- All Windows Operating System.

Should either be a) All windows operating System's (yes this does matter on a resume, some employer's may notice. Or better b) just list all windows systems like so:

- Windows 9x, NT, 2000, 2003, and XP Operating Systems

Is there any way you can post a PDF or screenshot of it or something? It would be nice to see it in the format you plan to present it in.
