Hello, Maurice.  Awhile back, we were talking about - -

 JH> Very newest mainboards now support something even faster - Serial ATA
 JH> (SATA), and drives which support that cost a bit more.  BIR I saw a
 JH> 120GB SATA drive in yesterday's paper for $120 AR.

 MK> I've noticed that.  I think I'll wait until the jury returns the
 MK> verdict on them.  :-)

Sounds good, and maybe by then the price will have come down a bit.
I have two friends who have bought new boards, both with that NVidia
chipset which supports both SATA hard drives and Dual-Channel DDR
memory. So far, neither of them has sprung for the new HDD, or for the
matched and pre-tested pair of DDR sticks.

is obsolete.
