Most bedrooms have a small TV in the room. I have my TV next to my PC monitor. Its a 720p TV. Most people have a TV and a DVD player in their rooms. Its basically standard now. So the TV in the room was originally purchased for other means. It can easily be used for a PC monitor.
And yes, some people have issues with certain things, those same people having issues with a fake christmas trees coiuld easily be quite small financial guys. And even I had issues with my fake christmass tree as it has like 7 plugs, was frustrating as hell to jigsaw it together in the correct order. Thats why Im going with a real tree next christmas. People have trouble with random things. Not everyone is slow enough to not figure out how to build a PC. Like I said, its playing with LEGOs pretty much. There is less and less different ports and stuff to stick things in. Everything is pretty straight forward. Female molex to male molex, sata to sata sockets, PCIe card into PCIe sockets, power cords to power cords, and CPU grease cooler. And of course mobo screws in correct places following the guide that comes with the case.

It is like playing with LEGO... if LEGO was build by midgets for other midgets! Maybe its just me but I simply could not get my cable management right without help. Even with a HAF-X one of the freakin biggest case aroud, I still spent 6 damn hours getting the cable neat and I had to buy extra cables and get help from a girlfriend with daintly lil figures because my hand was too big and clumsy to fit some of the socket in (and I am by far from a big guy being Asian).
I love building computers, its great fun really! But it is definitely a love-hate relationship :)

cable management is probably the most annoying part, and its mostly based on the case. My case the management was amazing. Wire ties help big time.
I have a NZXT Phantom. =]

Very sexy case, but I dislike the plastic look of the front panel. Plus I don't have space for the case to be on the floor and having a full tower with top mounted panel on a high table is a pain. The cable management of the Phantom looks waaay superior to the HAF-X and stock cooling features looks better too, its definitly the better case, but design wise, I like the big bulky 'I'm Space Marine tech' look of the Haf-X over the 'hey I'm a space age Mac' look of the Phantom.
Petty I know, but I have OCD issue when it comes to aesthetics :P
