If you get a computer with Windows 10 on it, that's easy. No key needed.

I would advise against this. Computers are cheap enough, just find something

Oops, ignore the chassis and screen comment, that was advice for a laptop. If

Yeah this would be a desktop. It would just sit in my basement.

Not opposed to this either except I'd likely need to completely reformat/reinstall

Or see if any local businesses are selling old machines. They will take care of

Not difficult if you look at each part and plug it in correctly.

Getting the right parts can be difficult if you're not familiar with the technology.

Yeah I was looking at that website and it seems pretty helpful.

I added a caution to my post. Most things will fit if they are right. They won't

From what I remember on their site, each row is based on the "these fit" req.

Whatever they have at Costco.
