    I suggest that if this is all new to you..and you have no idea how long it'll take you to break ONE down, Go to a thrift shop, or old computer store. Buy one (You'll probably pay too much for it) tear it all the way down and time yourself.

    Each PC is different..I can break a Dell Optiplex down COMPLETELY in about 3 minutes, An old Packard Bell or Compaq might take 5+ minutes....Finding that a Mac PowerPC is a lifetime of work!

    But we don't know your physical capabilities, and we don't know your set up, and we don't know if you'll be doing it by hand, or using a screw gun.....so the only way to tell is for you to do one, and use that as an average time.
