Definately Niall, but thing is, give it 2-3 months and there will be
something bigger and better :) If I waited too long I'd still be on an
XT/AT :)
well thats not exactly true, but point is u wait for things to come down
in $$, they do, then something better pops up and you want it too...us
humans want way too much!

DVD-RAM does sound like a good investment, but still is too expensive
currently (even at wholesale prices!)

my 2c worth..

btw. this 2.1 series kernel is so stable now! got 2.1.106 yesterday and
havnt had a crash since 2.1.88 - still if your not sure what your doing
dont upgrade! (someone asked me the other day why their kernel wasnt
working, i asked if they upgraded their libs and stuff and they didnt know
what i was talking about, so i told them not to upgrade hehe)
