> What: PLUG Linux InstallFest - Saturday, July 31, 2004 
> - Bring your computer for help installing Linux 

Thanks to Dennis (and all) who helped me at the Linux InstallFest 
last Saturday.  I really appreciate all the help that everyone in PLUG 
so graciously provides. 

Dennis, I never did receive the email that you sent to me on Saturday 
(can't imagine what happened to it, but it apparently got vaporized). 
So, from my handwritten notes, I tried to reconstruct the hardware list 
that you recommended for the new system I want to build, but I'm not 
sure I got it all right (see the list below) 

Below is a list of items from newegg that I am tentatively planning 
to order (unless you or someone else on this list has some other 
suggestions for a better (or cheaper) setup that would work well ... 
and for which everything will work with a minimum of tweaking. 

--------------------------------------------------------------- 
*case: 		Antec 3700 		$70 	subtotal: 
motherboard:	Asus A7V8X-X 		$56 	$126 
processor:	Athlon 2600 		$94 	$220 
memory:		Kingston 512mb 		$84 	$306 
hard disk: 	Maxtor 60gb 		$74 	$380 
cdrw+dvd 	Sony CRX230ED-B2 
	(or) 	Samsung SW-252FRNS	$30	$410 
floppy 		Sony 			$11 	$421 
--------------------------------------------------------------- 

* I don't understand what the Antec 3700 case adds (at $69.99) 
as compared to another case I noticed that is only $24.00: 
APEX Super Case with 350W Power Supply Model# PC-132
