What are the advantages of building your own server comparing with products from HP, Dell and IBM? Is it cheaper?

Yes, it's definitely cheaper. I find that the CPU's, RAM & HDD's are almost twice the price from Dell, than from a supplier who imports directly. Dell's motherboards are also more expensive, although their chassis are more or less the same price
