I know it's a _fast_ system and I like Outpost.com, I just didn't know:

a) Is this a good motherboard?

b) Is this a good price for this bundle?

c) Is it a real benefit to be able to use both SDRAM and DDR?


If I thought the answers to a and b were "yes" AND I thought I had the skill to
install a motherboard (I'd probably screw it up somehow), I'd buy this to
replace the P2-400 in my old PC.
