I want to sell for a fair price, but it's hard for me to come up with one because I remember how much I paid for the stuff in the first place. It's amazing how computer stuff depreciates. The ages are general approximations.

edit: Also, I provide tech support for about 6 months. After that, they're on their own. :)

Maybe you can check the prices of these components on Pricewatch?
And deduct a bit because they've been used, and then add a reasonable
price for your tech support. Heh, and if you're feeling generous..deduct
a bit just cause they are your friends. =D

Add up current prices of every single little part including software. Subract five to ten percent since its slightly used, then tack on a reasonable amount of money for some type of warranty, technical support, and system assembly.
