I didn't check the shipping costs, the the prices seem pretty good. The computers are very nice looking too.

wurd...

Same prices as newegg. No 'extra' costs. GREAT reseller ratings.

I bought a computer from ABScomputer.com one year ago, and I have been extremely pleased. The 333W power supply crapped out, but they replaced it with a 350W Enermax power supply no questions asked, no charges incurred.

Nothing but good stuff to say about ABS.

-Build-in LCD Temperature Display

God damn it, why cant people speak english right? it is built in and for sale, not build in and for sell!

and for the low low price of 4582.00 you can have their system with the most expensive part in every category (at least for P4)

Grammer ownage above my post.

I bought my computer from Cyberpower Inc. a long time ago b/c they had these pop up ads when you go to their site and once every 1 or 2 months they would have a dirt cheap system. I saw an AD once for a super cheap computer, I hesitated and missed the deal. I had to wait another month or 2 before something compareable came up. (Yes I checked their site like every 3 or 4 days at those popups.)
XP1800 (Volcano 6 CU+ fan/heatsink), 512 PC2700 (Turned out to be Samsung ram), KT3 Ultra, an OK case w/ window, I like everything except their fan grills are TERRIBLE (the air gets deflected back in to the computer), DVD-ROM (Artec, it is decent), no OS, it has super bright leds with an acrylic front :D, 80 gb IBM (so far didn't die) harddrive at 7200RPM, floppy drive, keyboard/mouse combo (Mitsuko, the keyboard was GREAT!, it had a power off button, most keyboard these days only have a sleep button. The mouse was complete junk.), and some junky speakers. All this for ~$550 I think. I think I bought it over 2 years ago. I can't remeber clearly so it is either 2 or 3 years ago. It was a super hot deal at that time. Unbelievable.

Yeah, this site is about as good as it gets in the built-to-order system class. I'll still build my own. Every time I put together a system at a site like this and then see a $65 shipping charge, it spoils it.
