We have one at my work, but it's an industrial model. Not sure if the local store sells drives like that.

That's not lightscribe, that's usually a printer with CD's that have a printable surface on one side; they do look nice and I think you can get inexpensive printers that do the same thing for a home user.. but Lightscribe is different than that (and pretty much useless I agree with the previous poster).

I agree with this.. if you know exactly what you want and have a reason for wanting it, then yeah custom built is good.. otherwise for a general home computer I would rather recommend a pre-made Dell system, or if you have to go local go with Memory Express or similar but get a fully assembled system with a warranty.
For most people, having a good warranty and support is far more important than saving a few bucks, plus it's pretty much impossible to build a cheaper basic system if you include the OS and Office software costs.
