Hi,

I'm looking for components for a new PC to install debian on.  I've 
been looking at motherboards (MSI & Gigabyte) and it seems that the 
IDE interface no longer exists.  Is no more IDE interface the new 
direction for PCs so that I will have to buy a SATA burner?

Thanks,

Hi,

You can still get an IDE interface on some motherboards, although it is becoming more and more difficult. Is there any particular reason for wanting/needing IDE?
