Yes, your famnily/friends asking you to do similar stuff is kind of bad, but u know them, so i guess it is kind of allright.

Considering building a computer (as long as all the parts are delivered on time) takes about an hour to do, building one for friends and family isn't a major headache.

Its when FRIENDS of friends and family start asking me to build PCs, it starts to get annoying. I usually say "yeah ok, the parts will cost £xxx so I'll charge you an extra £xxx for the time" If they still want it, ok I made a little cash, if not, I've just saved myself and hour and a lot of after sales support (why doesn't my mouse fit in the PS2 slot??.....because it's USB.....Oh..Ok)

Still I enjoy building PC and when I look at what Dell, Sony, Packard Bell etc are selling, it makes it worth while when I look at the machine I'm building (or one's I've build already) and see that, for the money, it will blow any of their machines out of the water.

If you get some money for doing it, then i guess it is allright, otherwise it's way too boring to do it.

There is nothing boring about building a PC ChatMod#1, you should try it sometime. I'd rather be building a PC than sitting watching TV any day. Plus as has already been said, the satisfaction you get is good too
