Getting There
Wednesday, 14th January 2004 at 9:52AM (1773 days ago)
started back at the office this week, so i haven't had a great deal of time to post.
i went through my list of parts and ordered the rest of the computer components needed. i ordered:
intel celeron 2.4ghz cpu
gigabyte ga-8s648fx motherboard
512mb ddr ram
seagate 40gb hd
gigabyte agp 8x ati radeon 9200 tv-out
hopefully i should get the parts this week or next and then i'll be able to start building the table once i've got the computer up and running.
my main reasoning behind using pc hardware is the fact that it's cheap and can easily be mounted without a case inside the table.
the table itself will run a very slim version of linux that will autoboot into a frontend menu. you will be able to shutdown the machine via the controllers and do everything else needed.
