    By Friday the parts for my newest machine should be here. They
    include an Athlon64 3200+ (Winchester core), Gigabyte GA-K8NS
    Ultra-939 (nForce 3 Ultra) mobo, and 250GB SATA drive.

    I'm unsure whether I'll use Fedora or Ubuntu on it, but all reports
    I have read seem to indicate both will work.
