The on-board IDE controller for the BP6 doesn't "speak Linux real good,"
but for the price, it was worth it. Dual P-IIIs are pretty cheap, now,
and I don't see much in the way of the ol' BP6 for sale -- perhaps the
P-III and Athlon onslaught has pushed them into oblivion. My dual-Celeron
still rocks, though -- far more than my at-work 1 GHz Athlon machines,
and, while it definitely takes longer to compile kernels and rip CDs than
my dual 1 GHz P-III machine, it still *feels* about as fast for most
day-to-day activities.
