The credit for inspiring me and giving the idea to work on this
goes to Eric Robbie - in July 2005 in Mexico on Master Prac
course he only mentioned Meta Programs Accessing Cues and I
thought - WOW. It was sort of the feeling psychologists get when
they discover fast phobia cure - they go, “Hey!! We can do it in
five minutes instead of 10 years!!”

I definiately was not the biggest fan of Meta Programs - I knew
they were important, but recognizing them linguistically felt
like loss of time; I never found a trainer who congruently was
always able to utlize them. Then there was the idea that what is
more important than Meta Programs themselves is the sequence of
them - I thought that worked better, since never in my life did
I find anyone who would always have this particular MP or other
- too often they were used as as just another way of
categorizing people.

Let`s say there`s a polarised person and they will do just the
opposite to what you say and do. If you wanted to recognize this
Meta Program verbally - you would need more time and risk more.
You come up to the person, say: “I have this contract for you”,
and what they do in their head is already against what you are
planning to achieve - it`s too late. What you were after was
saying: “Probably you wouldn`t be interested in this” - they do
the opposite, there you go. The question is - how would you know
what to say?

The idea of accessing Meta Programs non-verbally opened many
doors. First, you don`t need to ask - you just know before they
open their mouth. Second, I noticed a common misconception that
MP`s deal mainly with language - I believe they do, but my guess
it they are much more behavioural then linguistic. Think about
it - compare two people, one motivated towards, one motivated
away from. Think about the way they move when talk about their
goals. The way a procedure person gestures. The way a reactive
person looks at you.

The way I have been discovering all these basically comes down
to three stages - initially for a few weeks I would compare in
my head bahaviour, voice and looks of the people I know have
this or that MP. This would give me some idea how they differed.
This also lead me to good conclusions - obviously MP`s come in
different “sizes and shapes”, but there were many coomon
features too. Then I would practise - assess MP`s of a person
before I started talking to them and later verbally check my
predictions. Finally - and this text is the result of this- on
my last Master Prac In Warsaw, Poland, I gave my students a
special task which took us two full days. Results were
astonishing and very creative.

I gave all them a sheet which looked the way you see it here:

REPEATED WORDS GRAMMAR STRUCTURES VOICE BODY GESTURES

FACE SUBMODALITIES INTERNAL DIALOGUE KINESTHETICS

OTHER

On a flipchart, so that everyone could see, I put a list of 15
most popular MP`s. It stayed there for a few days, during which
I would nest many stories, refer to them from time to time and
point in a humorous way to some bahaviours of my students in the
seminar which defined certain kind of MP. In other words, I was
preparing them for a few days so that they practically realised
what MP`s were about.

Then the day came and I handed them the sheets you can see
above. I diveded them in groups of three and gave each one a
task.

The first person was to “have” a certain MP. In other words I
believed you can tell someone to be for instance a proactive
type and they will. I gave them new temporary identities. And I
hoped that everything else - bahaviour, beliefs, intonation and
voice, vocabulary, the way of talking, maybe even some
reinterpratation of values - would follow; and my predictions
were right. Call someone a hunk no matter what they look like,
make them believe in it and there you go. It does work.

This proved also, though they didn`t realise that quickly, that
the way I did it presupposed that MP`s can be changed - if you
can have any given in an exercise and congruently “function”
with it, then obviously it teaches that you can choose which one
you want to have and when. The second person was the one
starting a conversation - we chose very simple stuff, like going
out together, planning which movie to see etc. - this part did
not matter.

The third person was to observe the two - not say a word, just
see, hear and feel.

After like 5-minute conversation I asked all them to quietly
fill the sheet with their observations. Notice - doing so I had
three different perspectives, since the first one was “me”, the
second “you”, and the third one “they”. When they were done I
asked them to compare individual observations within the group
and notice what was similar. Then we would do the same with me
and compare what all groups had - notice similarities, agree
congruently in what was there and make conclusions. This article
is the result of what we did.

If you notice, I chose ten categories to focus on. Some of them
in certain situations did not prove to be useful - in others
they were crucial.

1. Repeated words obviously dealt with what they were saying.
For the purpose of the exercise which mainly did with non-verbal
part, words used were not so much important, and they were an
obvious consequence of other observations. You could even
predict what the person was going to say on the basis of other
things. But still, useful.

2. Grammar structures played important role in a few cases -
especially proactive/reactive MP`s. We also paid attention which
MP was more asking than stating or negating.

3. Voice was absolutely crucial - we focused on intonation,
speed, pace and other submodalities.

4. Body dealt with posistion, which quite often presupposed
internal mechanisms. Obviously if you get a person who sits
bending down, head down, shoulder slack, they are bahaviorally
proesupposed to make small pictures close to their heads - if
the floor blocked your way so would you!!

5. Gestures to me always helped to discover submodalities - they
would draw in front of my eyes, point where Internal Dialogue
was coming from or where things were. In this case this is also
true.

6. Face is made of more than 80 muscles working together - in
communication it reflects so much, that I am sure people
underestimate its rich meaning. Many times they would say
“there`s something in the face which tells me this…” etc.
without being able to precisely state what it was.
Interestingly, this took place here too.

7. Submodalities were mainly accessesed by Eric`s SMEAC`s - we
dealt with the most important things, like sizes, numbers,
shapes, colours, distance, leaving some less important aside.
Association and dissociation in many situations was crucial.

8. Internal dialogue was crucial - we treated it as basically
internal equivalent of external voice, just that ID wouldn`t be
heard on the outside and is definiately primary to external
voice. We paid special attention to intonation patterns and
content of what it said.

9. Kinesthetics is based on what the 1st, 2nd and 3rd person
were feeling. We described and categorized it (”relaxed”,
“tense” etc.) rather than described submodalities

10. Other was the pot for anything else that came to our heads

The following is the description of our observations and
conclusions - by no means do I claim the list is exhaustive or
always works - what`s more, I`m absolutely positive there`s so
much more to discover and uncover that this is just a peak of an
iceberg. I chose things that worked for us, avoided mind reading
and speculating what “could be” there, just focused on what we
saw, heard and felt without interpreting it. E-mail me
(info@mateuszgrzesiak.com) with your ideas and feedback, Meta
Programs Accessing Cues is a fantastic thing to work on and it
can move us much forward in our learnings and teachings.

1. Proactive and reactive MP

- Active type is a leader - he chooses most of the decisions
himself, often basis on internal standards and authority. He
uses first person singular (”I”) or plural (”We”). His sentences
are semantically well-formed with absolutely characteristic use
of active voice. He speaks fluently, confidently, specifically.
Body position suggests self-confidence, he plants himself often,
head and shoulders straight up. Deep breathing. Makes big, often
panoramic pictures, 3D, vety often associated - this influences
his kinesthetics, because Active`s are the type who gesture,
move, switch their position often. He leads more than paces.
Little or no internal dialogue, if so - hardly ever anything
verbalised, rather silent subconscious intonation patterns like
- “mmmmmmmm”, which strenghten his state and power of
persuasion. His chunks up rather than down and moves to options
rather than procedures.

- Reactive type avoids responsibility and is more prone to feel
guilty. He basis on external standards and authority. Wants
decisions to be made instead of making them. Crucial use of
passive voice - “it has to be done”, “it must”, “one should”.
Asks many questions (rather than states statements) , because
prefares when the answers come from different sources than
himself. Interestingly, when he is asked to perform or decide,
often he will go into “don`t want to” or “confused what to do”
states. Uses obligation (”must”, “have to”) and necessity
(”should”), which automatically makes him motivated in away from
manner. A lot of internal dialogue searching content-wise for
answers and installing doubt. Many small pictures without
specific content, often blurred, moving around. Dissociates
himself, which makes sense with his behaviour - he sees himself
in situations as marionette and subject of decisions rather than
source of them. “Placetor” in Satir categories - pleads,
apologises, takes guilt, is sorry. He might be tense often, face
expresses anticipation.

2. Motivation towards and away from

- Motivated towards are easy to spot - they state things in
positive and avoid nagation. The crucial point is that they like
the things they “want”, not “should” or “must”. This difference
is very important - motivated towards chooses a corrot and
dislikes the stick. His voice is often excited, more relaxed and
confident. He can “turn on” like madcap, shows his emotions,
experiences externally, enjoys more. In non-NLP language he`s an
optimist, what is obviously connected with “positive”
submodalities he`s making - tons of pleasant colors and a lot of
brightness. The bigger the size of the picture, the more “turned
on” they will be. They “have no time” for ID, if it`s there in
hardly ever verbalized, rather goes into intonation patterns
which enrich their states. A lot of eye movements going in
different directions, often jumping from a picture to picture or
seeing a big, panoramic one. A lot of gestures, used to desribe
and emphasise submodalities. They smile a lot - thinking about
nice feeling they will have which comes from the picture they
make simply makes them feel good. A loop is created - picture
makes them feel good, kinesthetic reaction is evoked, which
makes the submodalities more intense, which influences
kinestehtics and so on.

- Motivated away from - this type avoids bad experiences. Often
they use obligation (”have to” and “must”). Sentences are well
chosen and thought over; logical, rational computer. Often they
give reasons why. Pictures are dark compared with towards
motivation and dominated by black, grey, dark green, blue
colours (they will even say this verbally, like ” I have dark
thought about this). These are rather movies, usually with
unpleasant ending. Doesn`t smile too much. Face is darker,
greyish, after years with more wrinkles and lips curling down.
They use “what if” very often and polarise to what people say.
The emotion which they get when halucinated evil doesn`t happen
is only a relief - which is an example of stick motivation. They
explain themselves with “I want to avoid the worst” when calles
pessimists. A lot of ID with horrible intonation.
Characteristic, when they walk or move they often lose rhythm
and fluency - I believe it`s due to internal incongruence (he
rushes to work to avoid his boss scolding him, which makes him
feel bad and it influences his “flow”). I believe - and it is my
guess - that these people die from heart attacks more than
anyone else. Funny, I also think there are more men motivated
away from than women. Voice is often sad, disappointed, worried.

3. Internal and external standards

- Internal standards and authority - he believes his assessments
and judgements more than the others. Often polarised to what the
others say, especially if concerns himself to have authority on
the topic. Confident voice, often with a manner. Words like
“me”, “I” appear in different variants. Easy to manipulate by
giving compliments and confirming he`s right. Once I watched a
cartoon - Johnny Bravo it was - and Johnny was picking up a
girl. After talking about himself for long, finally he goes -
“But dear, let`s not talk about me, let`s talk about you! So,
what do you think of me?” Body is straighten up, focused on his
speakers, he loves argumenting. Firm body position, planted.
Gestures used to emphasise he`s right, like for example pointing
to himself, open hand moving in the air, a fist. Makes many
pictures in frames, contrasted and content-specific. Often
associated. ID is usually only his. Kinesthetics often based on
self-control and confidence. Paradoxally, he sometimes needs to
know opinions of others. Uses active voice.

- External standards and authority - looks for external
confirmation. Makes small and distanced pictures of what he
thinks and bigger and closer of the others. Many pictures flow
around his head, sometimes without any content, which may
confuse him. They can be often one of many sources of
information. A lot of ID of external origin, i.e. he hears other
people talking in his head with authoritative or authoritarian
intonation. He loses rhythm while talking to others, because
tries to do both things at a time - be up-time and talk to you
and in-time listening to ID. Uses external reference like “they
said”. Might be reactive. Less focused on the speaker, trances
out often, his faces expresses conentration, reflexion or
looking for something. He quotes a lot.

- Clip coupons. While you might not need two bottles of fabric
softener or eight cans of tuna, clipping coupons can help you
walk away with $20 more at the end of shopping. Buy the paper,
go online (there are many WebPages with free coupons) and
carefully look through the coupons. You might not need some of
the items right away but most coupons are good for a few months
and if you plan ahead you won’t pay full price for them two
weeks later.

- Try not to eat frozen/pre-made foods. While easiest to make,
frozen dinners can cost upwards of 6 dollars, while a pound of
meat may cost only four. Leftovers are virtually free and can be
combined with other things to make a whole new meal. If buying
fast and easy foods are a must- wait for a sale or find that
coupon, since most are frozen or can be, they can last for
months (or until the next sale comes around).

- Make lunch. It costs around 5 dollars to buy a sandwich at
lunchtime and with that same amount you could probably purchase
a pound of cold cuts at the supermarket. Think a week ahead and
plan what you can eat for lunch every day. Cold cuts go bad
quickly so make sure you’re not buying extra that will only wind
up in the garbage.

- Go Dollar Shopping. Dollar stores are everywhere, even in
malls. They can be a great place to buy health and beauty aids
or kitchen items. But don’t go too crazy. dollars add up, and
although things are cheap, don’t buy them unless you really need
them.- Keep the social life cheap. Being broke doesn’t mean
sitting around the house all the time. There are great things to
do that don’t require much money. If the weather is nice, go to
a park and read a book from the public library, or visit
museums. Most are usually low-cost, free or by voluntary
contribution.

- Reuse, Reinvent, Be Creative. Most items around the house
considered garbage can be used for other things. Old containers
can be used for storage of food, photos or if they’re big
enough, can be stuffed with clothes for under the bed. Try
finding different uses for things before you throw them out.
Kids aren’t the only ones that can make magnets out of Styrofoam
egg containers.

- Garage sales aren’t just for old typewriters. But if you need
one that’s the best place to go. You might have to rummage
through some broken items to find something of use, but they are
there. Just because an eight year old grew out of his winter
coat doesn’t mean it’s not in perfect condition. Who knows what
lamp you may find that would be of great value and only cost 3
dollars.

- Swap and Save. Do you know someone that has a desk they don’t
need anymore? Do you have a coat stand that is just collecting
dust? Get together with friends or start a local swap meet and
trade your unused items for someone else’s. It can save you a
great deal of money while helping out someone else.

Gardening along the coast presents even the most skilled
gardeners with challenges not encountered elsewhere. Natural
conditions along the coast create a very hostile environment for
garden plants. Wind, salt spray, dry sandy soils as well as
actual sea water can make gardening along the coast difficult.
All of these factors can cause problems for landscape plants and
effect how they grow. In fact, few plants can survive full
exposure to the ocean so site preparation and plant selection is
perhaps even more critical here than anywhere else. Despite
these difficulties, however, there are techniques and guides you
can follow to create a more favorable environment for your
favorite plants.

Building windbreaks as protection from the elements is essential
to creating hospitable garden spaces along the coast. Windbreaks
should be planted with indigenous seaside plants. Here in
Massachusetts, Rosa rugoas, bayberry and eastern red cedar have
developed along the coast and have proven their ability to
survive the harshest of seaside conditions. They also create
more diversity in the garden as well as a habitat for native
wildlife. Find out what grows naturally in along the coast in
your area and use those plants to create a protected garden
space. Begin the screen with a planting of lower growing shrubs
such as the above mentioned bayberry and rosa rugosa. This will
be the first line of defense against the ocean winds and salt
spray. Next, plant rows or massings of taller evergreens such
as eastern red cedar, this will dampen the winds even further.
Though the goal is to provide protection and create a retreat
and from the harsh seaside winds, design a planting plan which
still allows for beautiful views.

Along with wind and salt, dry and sandy coastal soils can
present gardeners with a challenge. Sandy soils are very well
drained and don’t hold enough moisture to satisfy the needs of
most plants. This holds true for some distance inland as well.
In order to remedy this situation till the soil and add a fairly
large amount of compost, manure and peat moss. This will help
the soil retain the moisture necessary for plants to survive.

Follow standard planting practices. Dig holes for trees and
shrubs about twice the diameter of the root ball and just as
deep. Place the plant in the hole being careful not to disturb
too many of its roots. Also, always plant so that the top of the
root ball meets the existing grade of the garden. Planting too
high or especially too low will result in early plant decline.
Begin backfilling the hole, at about half way fill the hole with
water and let it settle. I usually do this twice to make sure
there are no air pockets. Finish backfilling the hole then
create a saucer around the trunk of the plant, mulch well and
water again.

When planting a lawn along the coast the sandy soils create the
need for extensive site preparation. For lawns to thrive the
soil requires a certain amount of water retention. For best
results, begin with 6″ of topsoil. Topsoil holds moisture well,
provides necessary nutrients and will prevent the leaching of
fertilizers. When seeding, use a mix of Kentucky bluegrass,
fescue and rye. However, use a higher percentage of the drought
resistant varieties of turf such as fine fescue, red fescue and
hard fescue. Be sure to water your lawn deeply. Shallow,
frequent watering leads to weak root systems which remain close
to the surface. An alternative to a vast lawn is to allow native
grasses to grow into a meadow, just be sure to mow them at least
once each season to prevent trees and shrubs from taking hold.

With proper planning, tree and shrub selection and planting
technique, seaside gardens can thrive. Gardeners along the
coast will find the work involved in overcoming difficult site
conditions well worth their time and effort, after all the
greater the challenge the greater the reward.

There is more than one kind of bankruptcy. You should understand your options before deciding which chapter of bankruptcy you are going to file for, or if you are going to file for bankruptcy at all. Often the consequences of bankruptcy outweigh the benefits so it really is a very individualized decision and should be considered carefully. Bankruptcy should not be a rash decision.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy can be described as a liquidation proceeding. There is a certain amount of property that is exempt, but the rest of your property would be turned over to the bankruptcy trustee to be sold and divided amongst your creditors. There are some debts that can not be discharged but you will be free of all dischargeable debts within a few months after filing for bankruptcy. This provides for a fresh start and can be a great relief for those heavily burdened with debt that they just can’t manage any longer.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy is more for people who want to reorganize their debt, but still pay it over a longer period of time. Generally you are going to be able to keep your non-exempt property when you file for chapter 13 bankruptcy instead of chapter 7 bankruptcy. You only want to file for chapter 13 bankruptcy if your income is such that you can afford your expenses as well as devote a portion of it to paying off the debt covered by your chapter 13 bankruptcy.

Make an informed decision about bankruptcy before you start talking with an attorney. There is plenty of information readily available about bankruptcy and by exploring all avenues you may come across information that causes you to reconsider exactly what you are doing with your bankruptcy. The information can be overwhelming and you should definitely consult an attorney about bankruptcy before making a final decision.

Post 1900’s, the aftermarket for cars’ wheels and rims has become huge. Everyone wants to customize their car with the latest and trendiest set of wheels. You car can look more trendy within minutes of installing the latest set of custom wheels and rims. But selecting the right one is extremely important.

Types of custom wheels and rims
There are many different types of wheels and rims that you can find in the market. But not every one of them is designed for your car. You can get everything from the basic 5 spoke ally wheels to the more advanced chrome spinning wheels, which are a fad nowadays.

Appearance - Alloy and Steel
If you are just concerned about the appearance, then select the custom wheels and rims that you feel will suit your car the best. But if you are looking at racing, then choose an ally wheel as it is much lighter and will give your car the power it desires. Steel rims are much heavier and will slow down your vehicle. Alloy is also good for city traffic and prevents over heating of the brake system.

Installing larger than factory custom wheels and rims will give your car or SUV a sporty look. Find a one that matches the bolt pattern of the car. Ask the sales person at the store to choose the right offset for your vehicle. If this is not correct it will lead to problems in handling and steering of the vehicle.

Pricing
If you pay less, you will end up compromising on quality. If you go for slightly expensive wheels and rims, then you will get the look as well as the quality that you want. In comparison to brick and mortar stores, prices at the online stores are very less. The advantage of buying wheels and rims at the brick and mortar stores is that you can see, touch and have a feel of your custom wheels and rims.

It is not hard to choose the right wheel and rim for your car if you are know what you want and aware of the choices available.

There’s nothing worse than going away on your hard-earned vacation with the worry that your pet might not be safe, secure, fed properly or exercised adequately in your absence

Holiday boarding can be an excellent solution for looking after your pet while you are away. There are lots to choose from offering a range of different options, from standard accommodation to luxury suites. Prices vary dramatically, and are not necessarily the best indicator of quality.

Ten Steps for Selecting a Holiday Boarding Kennel or Cattery

This simple checklist should help you find the facility that’s right for your pet:

1. Visit the boarding kennel or cattery before making a decision. You should be able to visit the facility without an appointment during operating hours. If you are required to visit by appointment only, one must question what the facilities are like when you are not there!

2. Does it smell? This could be an indicator of insufficient hygiene

3. Is there ready access to a vet in case of emergency? Hopefully this will not be required, but it’s better to be safe than sorry!

4. Does the facility have a perimeter fence? You don’t want your dog escaping in your absence

5. Are staff suitably qualified in pet care?

6. Can the facility cater for your pet’s dietary requirements?

7. Is medication readily available, if required?

8. What are the hidden charges? For example, some facilities will charge extra fees for playtime, administration of medication or grooming services

9. Are there suitable facilities for exercise and entertainment of animals?

10. Is the facility accredited by a recognised authority, such as PIAA (in Australia)? This is not required, but such authorities set set minimum standards that member facilities must comply with. This includes enclosure size, meals, hygiene etc.

Many Boarding Kennels and Catteries can also provide a convenient pickup and delivery service. If your chosen facility doesn’t, there are specialised Animal Taxis that can arrange this service for you.

With your pet happy and secure in a safe environment you can now set about enjoying your holiday.

Remember when you were really young? It was an era of inconsequential innocence. Even at this age, your imagination was larger than large. Seemingly effortlessly, you concocted boldacious thoughts and dreams. You could pretty much imagine and then do anything you set out to do.

Remember?

You had big dreams; and even bigger expectations. Even as a youth, your psyche was naturally tuned to being, having and doing more every single day.

However, sometime - between the ages of nine and now - your ambitions
became ambivalent, blurry and unfocused. It wasn’t long before you lost sight of your most deepest desires.

What happened?

Well, you allowed people, thoughts and things to distract you just enough to obscure your inner vision. Today, neglected and rejected, are the desires of your heart.

The uncompromising love for those closest to you.

That sleek, new car you promised yourself you own someday.

What about that ideal career? Remember? It was supposed to help you realize that quality of life you talked about so much.

Just because your dreams are out of your view, doesn’t mean that they are not within you. Wouldn’t you like to see them again?

You have the ability to create and connect with all of your desires. What are you waiting for? Dump all of your disempowering thoughts and beliefs. It’s time to clear things up on the inside. Only then will you manifest what you truly desire … on the outside.

A wedding is a ceremony that celebrates the beginning of a marriage or civil union between two people; the ceremony has seen a large change in attitude over the last decade. Whatever the background and history to marriage, it is still a legal union between two people; the marriage certificate must be signed at the end of the service for the law to legitimize the couple’s relationship. Traditionally, the woman getting married is the bride and the man the bridegroom usually abbreviated to groom; once they are married they known as the wife and husband.

Having a Wedding Ceremony in a Church

As soon as you look outside of your own race, religious and social group, the wedding tradition can become very complex. Performed by a Christian priest or vicar, the Church ceremony continues to be top of the list as a venue. Primarily in the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States and the British Commonwealth, these ceremonies are known as white weddings.

Double Weddings

A rare type of marriage is where two separate couples decide to marry at the same time; related people are the most likely to try for this type of service.

Marriages in Another Country

When some couples decide to get married in another country, they are known as destination weddings; it doesn’t matter exactly where you travel to, whether it is in Egypt or just to Las Vegas it will still be considered a destination wedding.

Activity weekend Weddings

Two day or weekend weddings are a great way to extend the ceremony and festivities as an increasing number of people are finding out. To cater for an expanding market a number of companies arrange special themed occasions that incorporate anything from golf to surfing. For many people that have outdoor interests this can be a lot of fun and the guests can stay for the weekend with them to extend the occasion.

An Online Wedding Ceremony

Internet weddings seem to be something that has come about recently and a number of people are now using this method to seal their vows; There are already a number of companies based online can help you find out more information about his unusual type of ceremony. Strangely, if you decide to have your marriage shown online in real time it is called an online wedding.

Town Hall Services Despite the term civil wedding, most services that take place outside of a Church, wherever that may be, are civil weddings which have to be carried out by appointed or elected judges, mayors or a justice of the peace. Religion doesn’t normally play a part in these ceremonies because they are purely a legal requirement.

Thinking about getting a new computer, but with all the choices out there are you getting a little overwhelmed? Well why not look into building your own computer? By building your own computer you can get all the options you really want, whether you need a graphics design machine, game machine or just a simple word processor. You can tailor the computer to your specific needs. Now I know what you are thinking, “Isn’t building a computer difficult? I don’t want to screw anything up.” Well with a little reading, assembling your computer will be cake.

Most computer parts will only fit in the slots that they are intended for, so there is little possibility of plugging something in the wrong spot, but a little preparation and reading can go a long way. There are literally hundreds of sites on the web with tutorials that you can check out. Now be careful because some will be better than others, try to read a few so that you can really get a feel for what you are going to do. One of the sites I recommend you check out is http://www.cheap-computers-and-parts.com.

When you go about purchasing the parts, like any other big purchase, price them out, you may find that the price of parts varies between stores. Usually you’ll be able to make a deal with one of the stores around to give you all the parts at the lowest price you found, saving you some cash, and the hassle of driving all over town picking up parts.

Once you’ve got all parts you want and need, and you’ve read a few tutorials, its time to put it all together and enjoy your very own brand new computer.
