I have the space so I take whatever I can get.  I love being able to say "why of course I have that <insert obscure component here>, how many do you need?" I always want to build out all the components into like the 10 best computers I can make, but I never get enough time to do it.  All my parts are free, so whatever I can't use I scrap for components (capacitors, headers, I/O connectors, etc...).

For her needs, you could have just went to a local PC place, the flea market, Goodwill, etc... and just bought her a used PC for $50-$100. For $100, you could have gotten a high end P3, or an early P4.

There is no point in building  a low end PC if you are buying retail priced parts.

P3/P4 PC's at the goodwill disappear in a hurry around here. What's generally left is AT style crap that boasts the CPU speed on a two digit LCD readout on the front panel and sport "boost" buttons.
