Computer Things

Hey all,
I was looking to buy a computer, most preferably a laptop, but the
prices were absolutely ridiculous. I was thinking about building my own
desktop, which I could. I can make a computer better than DELL XPS for
a cheaper price. But then again, I really want a laptop. I was
wondering if there is any way to build a laptop by myself?

Another question:
I may be buying a laptop from Gateway, which is pretty good and the
price floats around $1.300. The thing is, it only has a 40GB internal
hard drive (with more than 40GB it would be too pricy). So, are
external hard drives used only for backing up, or can I also use them
as a normal hard drive, to install/play games on, to surf the web on,
etc?

Thanks!

Seen new Laptops available from many suppliers starting @ $500+ USD. Google
a bit. www.newegg.com can supply parts at a very reasonable price.

I don't think you can build a desktop for less than a dell, get the
least expensive dell and trick it out, memory, hdrive, etc.
