New mainboard recommendations
I came home last night to a dead motherboard. Terribly sad.
Now I have to upgrade!!!
Anyone have any recommendations? I would like to get something
this week so possibly I need to purchase locally.
At any rate, I want to keep my hard drives, sound, video, and ethernet cards.
I guess I'm looking for a motherboard, with processor and memory installed
in a new case (my current case is circa 1990, and it doubles as
my helicopter landing pad...).
Case: Midtower w/ accessible bays for 2 CD drives and a floppy
CPU: Something in the 650Mhz or better range
Memory: 128Mb or better
Mainboard: I don't need any ISA slots, all PCI is good. I want an AGP port
and good USB support...
Anyone have recommendations about what works well with Linux, and where to
buy it. This system will never run Windows (or CPM, or other legacy OS's)...
Whoo Hoo!!! A new toy^H^H^Hcomputer system!
