In the next couple of months I hope to be building an Intel i7 system with an Intel DX79SR motherboard. It has SATA plugs for 6 drives and holds up to 64gigs of ram. If anything is Linux compatible, that should be. (And if it isn't, it soon will be.) _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
