I would like to build a computer for either 1.) Linux workstation, 2.) Firewall, or 3.) Audio jukebox. I have some spare parts around the house, so I wanted to hear recommendations. I have a bunch of 486 / 66 machines (could easily be built) so I'm thinking about using one of those for the firewall. I have a Pentium 133 laying around too, along with some EDO RAM. My question is this. Should I a.) purchase a cheap MB for my 133 and stick in some more RAM, b.) purchase a 486 / pentium computer overdrive thingy (I have a good bit of RAM for the 486 boards), c.) purchase a new / used Pentium M/B and an evergreen Pentium 400 MHz overdrive processor and RAM. That chip is about $140 or so. For the audio jukebox, I would like to add a video card with tv out. Nothing fancy. I would also like to include a pretty nice sound card because... what's the point in having a crappy sounding jukebox? Questions, comments, valid criticisms? Send them on! Thanks!
