You can buy a basic computer from Dell cheaper than you can buy the parts to make one yourself.  You can save a few hundred on a high-end gaming machine by building it yourself.  Newegg, see sources, is a very good source for parts.

Depends on what you're going to use the computer for. Gaming? Business?\n\nHow much do you plan on spending?\n\nThese are important details that are needed to solve your question.

Alien computers make very good high end desktops, but HP probably makes more "bang for your buck" desktops...go to cnet.com, it has great reviews...

You can start your own business servicing computers at home.\n\nOnce you get started word of mouth will keep you going.\n\nI install AVG anti virus, two spy ware programs and Windows defender for $50. I run the scans and everyone is amazed and happy with the speed of their computer. \n\nI have people bring their box only & I hook up a moniter etc on my workbench.\n\nThe programs I install are free & legal.

If you're set on buying a name brand pre-built PC, Dell is still probably the best choice.\n\nYou may want to consider looking in your newspaper or around town to see if there are any small shops that do custom computer builds.  You'll often find it cheaper to have the parts purchased individually and then built together by someone not part of a big business.  Good luck!

My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 6000.  I built my desktop myself.  Well, okay...my husband walked me through it, but I physically did it all.  ;)

HP (Hewlett Packard) Makes great computers for an affordable price; this includes laptop and desktop computers. If you shop around, you should be able to find an HP computer with over 100 gigabytes of harddrive space for around $500 USD.\n\nThe best way to make your money go further in a new computer would be to shop around at sales and build your own.

First, I am assuming that by "computers", you mean a relatively new (after 2000) home computer... and that by "America", you are referring to the USA.\n\nThat is like asking... "where can I buy a car without any foreign parts?"... you can't!... but seriously, if you want anything that is 100% American made, you pretty much have to build it yourself (from scratch)... even if you were to buy a computer that is "made in the USA", its components, such as transistors, capacitors, resistors, ect... (probably most of them) are almost certainly foreign... so really, they are only assembled in the US (as is sadly the case with most "made in the USA" labeled products)... and even if you were to find one that was truly made in the USA, there's a near certainty that a good portion of its design was done overseas... and even if you were find one that was made, and designed in the USA... you would be hard pressed to find (any) "brand name" software (including the operating system) that was 100% coded in the USA... and (yet another exemption), assuming everything I mentioned above was done in America, you would have great difficulty to find one that wasn't at some point shipped, assembled, sold, or anything else by an illegal alien...\n\nIf someone told me to find such a computer, or be shot, I would probably take the second offer, rather than search my entire life for something that probably doesn't exist.\n\nIf you want ane american made home computer, go to a museum.

Buy the most that you can afford.  I would make sure that the computer has at least 512mb memory, 2ghz processor, 128mb video card and 160gb harddrive.

Go for a branded PC of HP or Dell.\n\nYou should look for P4 2.88Ghz or 3Ghz with 1 GB of RAM, 17" SVGA monitor, 180GB of HDD, Built in NIC with at least 32MB of video ram.

You.  You make the best PC.  If you build it yourself, by looking at what aprts you need, then you make it exactly to your specifications and needs.
