I used to do that too a while back, but currently I've found that considering the small price difference between a brand machine and a hand-made one, it's not worth loosing a day of work to make one.
For example at Dell.fr yesterday I configured a configuration I really like for 600EUR (20" flat-screen included) and building an equivalent machine from parts would cost over 500EUR.
