[quote name='seanr1221']I honestly haven't noticed a huge jump in the sound quality, it's just being able to play everything from my iPhone that's great. I've always been jealous of the Zune Pass, and this fills things nicely.

I think I want to build a PC once we settle into our place this fall.
2 questions.
How realistic is it to build my own if I know little to nothing about this kind of stuff
and
How much would I be looking to spend if I wanted to run the current top games?[/QUOTE]
CK64 is a good resource for this, so is Ackbar. Music also just built one, I think, so he might know.
It partially depends on how scared you are of
ing up electronics and how good you are at troubleshooting.
For the most part, it's really order the supplys, fit the shit in the case, connect with cables, boom. If you get help making a shopping list... you should be good to go.
I'd wager you could build a really good PC for gaming for under $1000, especially if you shop from now til whenever you build it, so you can pick up good deals as they occur instead of being forced to buy everything in a small time window.
