This video on BBC World is great.
Its only 3 minutes long.

I think the technician in the blue T shirt does the best job.

1175009 2011-02-03 20:08:00 I had to wait several days for my computer to be built but it was worth the wait. No problems.

In the speed build I'll bet that quality control goes out the window. the one in the blue shirt was the best looking but she did look a bit flustered. I notice one person was looking at the manual.

1175011 2011-02-03 21:23:00 Not really building a computer now is it?
As far as I can see the mainboard, CPU, CPU fan/heatsink & PSU are already in the case.
All they are doing is putting in the RAM, video card, HDD & optical drive.

Lost interest as soon as I saw that.
I'm thinking, risers, MB connecters from case, cable tidying.....and..........testing!! Nah not in minutes.

For ten thousand dollars I would have built my own case!
