I own a Server (CC is not Focus, Its Brazillian and for me and friends), and everyone have a Computer.

For me, Craft a Computer is excessively cheap. Like: You Burn some Cobble and Sand, mine a Redstone and you have one.

My Suggestion is:
  1. Recipe a Bit more Hard (Swap the Smooth Stone with Iron)
  2. Hard-Mode Recipe (An boolean in ComputerCraft.cfg to Use a Hard Recipe)
  3. An Addon or Plugin to Custom Recipes of Computers.
I've seen Servers with Buildcraft and Computercraft and the players with Quarrys and a Massive-Computer Creation Assembly Line. Let's make the Recipes a bit harder!

Why? Computercraft computers aren't overpowered, so why would you make them more expensive?
I've seen people building huge autocrafting systems using applied energistics to autocraft every block in gregtech within seconds, so let's make those blocks more expensive! No.

Did you know that you can change recipes with a mod? http://www.minecraft...ding-knowledge/

Haha. They are. Ever seen a redstone computer interpreting lua script? I didn't. ComputerCraft is Wireless Redstone, Programmable redstone computer, repeater, GUI & console in one.

The reason they're not overpowered is because you have to spend time programming. Just like you'd have to spend time getting recourses. Make them more expensive, and ComputerCraft is too hard and not any fun nor useful at all.
Also, there is no reason the computer would need iron rather than stone. To me, the crafting recipe makes sense. You're some sort of super genius and you can turn a long coord of wire and some glass and stone into a computer ;D!

And can you give any reason why any of these is overpowered? (It's just silly to build a huge redstone contraption to do something like addition, so that doesn't count.)
