PC Components are cheaper online
It's fairly easy to build if you can name the parts
Take your time the first time you do it
Its A HELL OF A LOT CHEAPER to build your own (if you want to use name brand parts)
If you're just a very very casual user, it's cheaper/more efficient to buy a Dell when they have a great deal with coupons/rebates

I built mine using this site:

It's amazing how much fluff there is out there pretending it's harder than it is.
Of key importance was that my motherboard (ASUS) came with a good manual which was intended for laymen.
The best reason to do it is that if anything goes wrong with any computer of yours in the future, you'll probably know what to do right away.

arty:Kramer - good advice..
make sure you buy good components and keep track of all the warranties. That's the biggest reason to buy from a name brand, they will back their product for 1-3 years or whatever it is. If your built computer breaks down, you have to figure that crap out yourself and fight with the manufacturer for the warranty.
I save myself from all that hassle and just bought a Mac
