Hay thanks for the quick start. I really like what you have. It is about
the same cost of what I had put together. I added a sata hard drive, case
w/power and a video card. I don't have any. It ends up being about $710.
That is more than what I wanted to spend but you can't always have what you
want. I guess it more hot dogs and grill cheese sandwiches for the next few
months.
