First, I wish to thank the people who helped me with choosing the
motherboard, and with my decission to go with Celeron.
At last I decided to go with Celeron400A and MSI motherboard. I got a
good offer.
I found that the MSI is jumperless, and I consider it as a deficiency, as I
cannot prevent flashing the BIOS by jumpers (a good defence against
some very harmful viruses). But beyond that, it should be an excellent
motherboard.

Now as to choosing the hard disk, I would go with typical UDMA hard
disks 8.4 Gb, the faster ones (66Mhz) are too expensive for this
purchase). In the past Seagate got bad reputation, and I could say that I
would go only with IBM or WD, but I'm not sure that this is still valid.
I can now choose between Seagate and WD, and initially I tend to go
with WD, but wish to hear few more views.
