Congrats Andrew!

>(sooooo nice!)
Looks like one of those Maximum PC's "Kick A**" products. (mental note: get
one thunder k7 when I grow up)
>with linux?
No idea. But the stuff seems vanilla to me: no integrated (win) modem , no
integrated (win)video card, no integrated (win)audio card. SCSI and network
stuff is usualy safe to say that it works with Linux. Also, ATA-100 makes
for a nice'n'cheap'fast software RAID controller.
>MSI doesn't have a comparable board yet
You only need one, AFAIK
>-Andy
BTW, I'm also in the process of getting some upgrade kit: Athlon+ MoBo + RAM
+ nice case + nice fans. Recomendations on HW and on-line/live shopping
centers? I'm looking for "stability first".
Salut,
Sinner
