    OK, after much discussion (mostly about compatibility issues) i took all your advice and finally picked out my parts for my first computer build! Again, I am building a pretty bottom of the barrel computer, not to use, but pretty much just for the experience of building it. Can you please look at all my parts one more time and make sure I don't have any compatibility issues before i put my order in? Thanks a bunch!

    You aren't going to be happy with 1 gig of memory.

    It is cheap now. Go for at least 2 gig with XP and 4 for Vista.

    They will, but I would rather get a 1GB RAM (1 X 1GB) instead of 2 X 512 MB, so you will have more room if you ever want more.

    New things are sometimes old. You must install memory in pairs for dual-channel operation.
