Last checked Circuit City and not only do they have good 
prices on Western Digital drives but they also have 
"Centon" PC133 128 Meg. SDRAM at 30 bucks which claims
compatibility with PC100 and PC66 sticks.
I think I'll buy one each, drive and 128 stick DIMM, next month.
Following month a second 128 Meg stick and "Best" internal
hardware modem at 50 bucks. At that point this machine will 
be maxed out :-)
As to the ATX power supply I'll get back to that before I
attempt to add a CDRW drive or perhaps I'll just remove the existing
read only CD-ROM and replace it with the writable CD drive.
