Hi, I did read their post when it came out a while back, but I did not use their parts list for this computer or look at it recently. Looking at it now, the 3 common parts were the CPU, motherboard, and case. Both the motherboard and the CPU are customer choice award items at newegg, with tons of sales and positive reviews. I imagine 90% of people building Intel quad cores use this CPU, and the MB selection is narrow. The case was the big coincidence, but it was $30 off when I bought it, which is why I did. The "algorithm" I used to pick the parts was: 1. Go to new egg 2. Sort by # of ratings 3. Find the top-rated, high-selling stuff. 4. Look at the % of low ratings, and read a few of the low-rating reviews to see if something is wrong with the component (everything has a few one-egg reviews, but their kind matters) 5. Google the part to see if it's ok in the main reviews or if no major problems are around. 6. Done cheers
