I have like a dozen computers. Most are in pieces. Some I have reassembled. Currently I have a Vostro 200 that I have resurrected. It does not have a GPU the PSU is only like 250W so it probably wouldn't power much of one anyway.
I put a new 500 gb HDD in it and maxed out the memory. It is rocking 2.5 Ghz CPU and a mind altering 4Gb RAM.
It is my intention to build a couple of these and market them to either the housewife type crowd, meaning maybe someone who doesn't really need a pc except for email, surfing, etc, or maybe students. I have installed Office, which is valid and usable but out of date.
The license key is about $110 and I think my time to assemble and program is worth $40 or $50. But these aren't terribly marketable at $150 or $175.
Any suggestions on what to do to make these more marketable? They aren't new, they aren't fast, they aren't $800...or more. Which is my marketing hook. I am thinking of offering free repairs from the parts I have available for like, IDK, 90 days, maybe 6 mos? Not sure if that would be attractive to a potential customer or not.
I have all the stuff I could build an awesome windows xp machine, but who wants that?
