I'm putting together a new computer for my father-type for mostly business uses, but hopefully some games when I come home from school 
The layout is: (all prices newegg)
MSI nforce mobo $187
tbird 900 $64
maxtor (no need to debate the relative qualities of WD/Maxtor/IBM HDs please) 30 gb 7200 rpm ata100 hd, $87
lite-on 16x10x40 cd-r $70
case with 300 watt power supply--elsewhere
1x256 mb pc2100 ddr, crucial--will the dual channel ram setup work with just one stick??
Some Crappy HSF
I think that's the meat of the issue. Tell me if it looks passable please (and be quick
