I have got the new PC together. I am normally an Intel guy but I figured I
would try a AMD processor this time. It's a 3.2G 8 core with 16G of ram. I
haven't picked up the SSD drive yet. They have 250G's nearby for like $79. Once
I get Ubuntu installed I will need to do some testing to try to avoid any
operational issues.
