The buy.com price I quoted included a multilink, $1438. You can get
1600SWs and sometimes multilinks much cheaper on eBay if you're skilled at

This is just for a home system - so a little bit of work and a
little gaming. I'm not much of a high end gamer.
And I'm somewhat on a budget so any high end graphics that your
talking about are out of my range. It's fun to dream, though. :)

Hi,
I'm going to be building a new system sometime in the next month or
so. I don't need anything top of the line (1 GHz), just a quick,
affordable system.
Could you guys recommend anything under the following categories?
Motherboard & CPU - I usually stick to AMD. Now the Athlon and the

Read up on Linux and ATA-100. New technology...

Hardware aside, you need a journaled filing system, as Jakob suggested.
Journaling works via transactions, and is used in more than just
filesystems. Microsoft SQL and Exchange are two products I know that use
journaling. Here's how it works.

Your config files are in /etc/X11, the main config file is /etc/X11/XF86Config.
Beware though, that some X distributions prior to 4.0.1 also puts config files in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11. You may have a symlink from one XF86Config file to the other.
Check it out with ls -l, or ls -F. With -F
