In my case, it was a cut of my Grandmothers 'long lost' inheritance (who I would prefer to the computer!).
As for the system? Purely my 'personal' machine and *originally* designed that way.
I got higher specs then I originally planned for but much lower quality parts, not what I wanted for the design and more headaches, but it works (with kicking) although it's been more trouble in the long run.
One thing that I especially like about the ideal of building ones own machine -- you can make sure it frigging works with your operating system more readily then an off the rack Dell
