Hi, I figured that I want to get some experience building a computer, and I also want to learn linux. So I am thinking about buying a barebones computer kit from Tigerdirect, asembling it, and then installing Ubuntu on it. I was looking at this kit here: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1384809&Sku=SYX-BB-988834%20A and wanted to know if you think this is overkill (probobly is) and what you guys think of the components, or if you have suggestions for a better/cheaper one. I figured a barebones kit would be the bet way to go for a first one, also it will help keep the cost down and I won't really have to worry about compatability issues. -Josh |

I just found this one also: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1473283&sku=TC3G-7003 this one is a little cheeper (not the athalon 64 though) and it also comes with a GFX card. |
