I recently built a desktop from parts, for the first time in years. It's not really a geeky experience anymore. Pretty much everything's onboard, there's no fiddling with IRQ jumpers, you don't have to completely dismantle the case to get to the RAM sockets... you just bolt stuff together, plug stuff in, turn it on and watch it go. There's nothing for geeks there.
