I guess I agree with pretty much everything. I would go with 128 mb of ram
though. Also the best video card with JFW right now is the Matrox G200.
The good motherboards are either Intel or Asus. The new K63's look great.
They out perform the PIII. Check out Toms hard ware guide.

Hey maybe we could come up with a list of sound cards that support dual
play back of files. What do you think Nick? I know that the sound blaster
live does this well. It's the best consumer card right now.
Hope this helped
