Welcome to the CS31 Computer Build Project

This project developed out the students interest in building an awesome working computer.  During the fall,  the students learned about programming and computer technology.  While all of the students had experience with running computer devices and software --few had knowledge of the inner workings of a computer device.  What was inside the box was a mystery.

So, in October and November we looked at the basic parts that make up a PC-- motherboard, chip, drives, etc.   During this investigation the class got excited about the prospect of actually building a computer and so--we started pricing parts and looking at what we could do.... We are ready to start this project !
