Sounds decent. I would recommend an ATI video card as they are well supported.

Dear List,

I have around $2000 to spare and would like to set up a decent Linux workstation (mostly for statistical computing). Would anyone recommend a working hardware configuration for me? I am really afraid of possible compatibility issues since my old machine froze from time to time because of them.

What currently in my mind is:

1. Dual Athlon 2400 CPUs. ($500?)
2. One quick SCSI hard drive and one spacious IDE hard drive.
3. Linux compatible Motherboard? 4. 1G memory (what kind of memory?)
5. A creative sound card.
6. A resaonbly fast video card?
7. A decent 21in CRT monitor ($500)

Many thanks in advance.
