nice find and fedora is a good server distro. Is that a slot 1 cpu?

hahahaha, I know... maybe "Dinosaur" would have been a better choice than "monster."

I have a couple other boards laying around. One's a AMD 1600+ and the other's a PIII I believe.

I'd put in the AMD 1600+, ironically, it will be faster

I haven't had a chance to poke around at it yet but there's a chance I may put a p4 setup in it.

I got a free server too once... It was about that size, but square. I swear it weighed 50lbs.... Compaq Proliant PII... I gave it back to the guy I got it from because it was so damn big lol.
