as dudemac said, I build everything with the exception of laptops. This generally amounts to about 100 systems a year including the ones I build for use at work. In my opinion there is no reason to buy when you can build if you know what you are doing.
As far as the costing more to build part, I have priced enough systems to be able to say with confidence that is not the case 95% of the time and never when you consider value.
