Do you like barebone system? They are small in size and sleek, but the price is quite expensive when comparing to traditional tower or mini tower. I like them but I'd rather spend the extra money on RAM

Expensive?
Do you guys know what a barebone system is?
A real barbone system is actually inexpensive.

A barbone system is a half built pc, always without an OS installed, or even without a HDD for that matter.

A typical BareBone system will include an ATX case with an ATX power supply, and motherboard with a coresponding socket chip (CPU).
then from there, they usually give you one of these:
a stick of memory
a harddrive
a cdrom drive

They you have to pick out the rest of the stuff you want.

that is a typical barebone.
all you need is memory upgrade, harddrive and a rom, and your good to go.
