DAMN!!! 30GB hard drives, the 7200RPM's are down to $84!!!
Lets see here, the roll your own package:
motherboard $100
1.2ghz Athlon $82
Hard drive $84
256 Ram $31
Video card apprx $60
Scavenge the CD drive and floppies maybe even the case, out of your old computer, and you have a fab system for $357, give or take. Man, this rocks. I do suggest a rack mount case though, which is still not cheap.

Is crucial kosher?
Have you, or has anybody else out there, ordered from crucial.com? I realize that I'm just paranoid, but I'm always leery of ordering things from a company that I don't know anything about. I have a much higher comfort level buying locally, so that I can go back to them, drag the guy across the counter, and demand my money back when it doesn't work. But, seriously, I would like to know if anyone's had any dealings with them.
