memory is super cheap right now, a 256mb module is only $34.. so stock up, your new motherboard should handle 3 modules, for a total of 768mb of memory. You should also make sure you get a fast hard drive, usually 7200rpm and ATA100. I like IBM drives. "Cooke, Julie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I've got a Celeron 466 with 128MB of RAM and recently bought a Nikon Coolscan LS4000. I think it's time to upgrade my machine! I've concluded that I need a custom built machine with a graphics card where the look up table can be calibrated and a high end monitor. Can anyone recommend graphics ca
