Q: Workstation Hardware Layout? (Urgent)
Dear `experts`,
before I can enjoy some vacations, I have to order the teacher's
workstation. I hope to get some advice to have an up to date but
debian/stable compatible machine.
This is what I think of:
Pentium IV 2600 MHz
512 MB RAM
FDD
DVD-R
CD-RW 40x
IDE HDD 40 GB (silent, 5400 RPM)
USB 2.0
D-Link PCI - LAN (100 Mbit)
PCI Sound (SB compatible)
AGP Graphic card
Silent Fans (ball bearing)!
I am quite uncertain about what brand the mainboard - and most other
periphery.
To take profit from the silent TCs I also want the teacher's WS be very
quiet. Also thought of a barebone - something like XShuttle.
We plan to connect some scanner - either an older AGFA SCSI (then we'd
nbeed some dear PCI controller) - or a new USB scanner, if that is
supported with stable.
Video and Firewire input could be further options - but not necessary.
For now, I'd like to fix my first outline.
Thank you for your advices,
regards
Ralf
P.S.: Am I right that there are some problems with MSI mainboards and
some NVDIA graphic cards?
