Yep, I hve one that is solid as a rock.  Bought off the shelf components and
put it together myself.

No need to buy an overpriced turnkey PC if you have enough knowledge to put
a system together yourself.

I also just put together a maxed out athlon system with decent components
for a friend for $400.

Why pay for support if they are not helpful and you can't get through
anyway.
