hi

It all looks great except delete the winME completely from your 'memory bank' http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/smile.gif
(I would not put that OS in anyones machine unless I really disliked them}

WinXP (the OS formerly know as 'Whistler') is in beta testing now so I would wait on that.

Have not personally used Win2k, but have heard mostly good things about it.

What is the 25 meter crossover cable for?

just my 2¢

For the same money (Motherboard is more, cpu is less) I would go with a AMD Athalon Tbird 1.2 GIG & an Abit KT7A motherboard personally. Get a lot more "Bang" for the buck. And I would install Win 98 SE.....no questions asked!! http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
