Look ma, no debt!If our report on cheap small form desktops got you interested in putting together your own PC, then take a gander at this deal: Tiger Direct is selling a 300GB Maxtor 7200RPM 16MB cache hard drive for $89.99 after rebate*. For just a little more effort you can even come up with your own personal video recorder, which means you’ll finally be able to archive all those episodes of Walker, Texas Ranger you love so much without getting laughed at by your roommates.

Incidentally, Systm has a great “For Dummies” primer on setting up your PVR using the absotively, posilutely, free open source MythTV.

*Rebate ends 11/30. That gives you three weeks to settle your debts with your pimp. I’m just saying, is all.
