I have just about made up my mind to order the Dell Dimension 9100 computer
system.  I have a few questions about what to get.  One is that I would like
to have surround sound capability even if I don't get the actual surround
sound right away.  Is a Sound Blaster Live 24 bit sound card sufficient to
provide that?

Also, even though the hard drive in this system is 160 Gig, I am considering
having a second one put in as I have been told that with hard drives
becoming so large, it's a good idea to have a second one of equal size for
backup purposes.  What do you all think?

If any of your computer gurus want to contact me off list please feel free
to do so.  73.
