There's nothing legacy, all new stuff. Zoom External modem, probably the Matrox
G200. Cutting edge, maybe. I'm thinking of going with the Creative Labs Ensoniq
PCI sound card, but that may not be a problem. I'll be using the new 7,200 RPM WD
Ultra 66 drive with the Promise controller. I'm using one of those myself with NT
and so far so good.

Thanks again!

Jose
