CHECK LIST
If you are going to build your PC, the first thing you'll need to
do is get your parts list together. There are two reasons why you
would want a check list. First reason, it just plain sucks to get
far into an installion just to find out you have forgotten a crucial
component. Just as importantly, the check should have a price next
to each item and thus give you the cost of your endevour.
RED (**) - considered optional.
GREEN (***) - For Mainboards built after 1997,
if you are using Windows 95/98, LS120 can be used in place of 3" floppy utility drive.
However, many other operating systems still seek the parallel port for floppy support.
All other are considered standard devices.
