Question from Adam J.:  I read an article the other day that discussed the advantages and disadvantages of building your own computer from scratch as opposed to buying one off the shelf.

It really caught my attention when they said that you can save money by building a PC with used parts purchased on eBay.

I’d really like to build my own computer and save some money, but the article only discussed building a desktop computer. I already have one of those so what I really need is a laptop.

In your opinion, is it possible to save money by building my own laptop? And if so, do you have any tips?
