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.

Yeah, the warranty and coverage is a big issue... you're right.
I didn't factor in the software costs though... but that's 'cause when I build mine, I don't worry about that.
