@YurkshireLad I hadn’t noticed that. I just checked the other book bundles and didn’t see any restrictions so I’m guessing it has something to do with this bundle coming through Kobo which would be odd since Kobo is a Canadian company.

@JakenVeina I looked at Microcenter but a lot of stuff seems to only be available in store and there isn’t one close by. The closest one is 3 hours away. I’m also hesitant to buy computer parts from Amazon so Newegg seems to be the only good option. I’ll probably also check B&H to see if they have everything.

@SpaceCadet I thought about that but I like the little window on the side. It makes it easier to see inside if I need to check on something. Just recently I needed to check and make sure nothing was using my bottom sata ports before ordering an m.2 SSD. With the side window, I could just take a peak inside without having to pull the panel off.

As some others have said, I’ll likely hunt for non-RGB stuff or just set it up to turn them off.

@dpunked The kids were 10-13. The game mechanics are really simple to learn too. The box says 8+ and that’s probably accurate.

@lemmy_party The problem is less building the PC and more to do with picking the parts. My first gaming computer as one that I picked the parts out for and someone else put together and it was the worst computer I’d ever owned. Despite PC Part Picker assuring me that the parts were compatible, they apparently weren’t because it was an unstable mess. My current PC was built by someone who knew what they were doing and it’s the best PC I’ve ever had.

@SignorPao @TheTechNerd Some nice Hall Effect joycons would certainly be nice.
