I just did this myself. There is a pretty good howto in the last issue of Linux Journal on a bargain priced system which you put together yourself. I have found that by doing this you tend to get the best hardware and some of the best deals out there. I just build a system like this:
AT Style Motherboard
<p> I'd suggest staying away from AT style anything today. Unless you're rebuilding an older system it isn't worth it. How many motherboards are even made today to the AT format? Cases aren't that more plentifull. Worse the price doesn't seem any better. OTOH if anybody knows a good AT motherboard I've got a very nice large full size AT tower that I wouldn't mind putting back to work. Nick
