Hello.
I want to make a compact PC, but I'm not sure whether I should buy the preconfigured vendor PCs or make a custom one. As I understand it, making custom PCs is cheaper, but the setup I have in mind is to make a PC that is small in size (perhaps similar in size to the Mac mini). Does that mean I have to buy specialized PC components that are more expensive to their regular-sized counterparts? If that is so, from a convenience standpoint, are the vendor configured PCs made by HP a viable option?
