I'm getting a new box this weekend to replace my almost 4 yr old comp that I use now, spec as follows:

Antec Sx830
AMD T-Bird 1333 AHJYA
MSI K7T266
Crucial 256MB PC2100
Swiftech MC-462A Rev.1
Tt BLORB for KT266
Creative GF DDR (it's free, so it's good)
IBM 40GB 60GXP
Pioneer 16X DVD
2x Panaflo 80mm Low speed
Philips Acoustic Edge (already ordered)
Altec Lansing ACS56 (got as gift)
Samsung 955DF (also got as gift)
Rounded cables
Motorola 56K Winmodem
Sohoware NIC 10/100 (free)
Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse (got as a gift)
Logitech Cordless iTouch

Anything wrong or last minute suggestions? What OS should I run? I've got 98, 98SE, ME, Win2K, and WinXP RC1.
 
Looks like a great system and you did your research around here...

OS really depends on what you will be using this for...gaming, may wnat to go win98se/me, business apps go win2k...hell dual boot!!!
 


<< hell dual boot!!! >>


Yes, that is correct. Also, you might want to pick up an additional 256 MB of memory while the price is still cheap.
 
It's a nice machine.. Dual boot only if you know there is something that will not work well in 2K that you REALLY like.
Up the memory at least to 384...You're good to go
