i have to apologize upfront, because the primary purpose of htis message
is a test.  having said that, not to waste everyone's time, i do have
some very general questions about hardware recommendations.  feel free
to ignore this if you think its not worth your time =).  i'm planning
on upgraded my 486 to the following system, and would appreciate any
comments on the hardware choices with respect to compatibility, performance,
etc:

p-120 (intel)
asus P55TP4N-256P or 5PT4N-F-512K
buslogic 946C SCSI 
#9 motion 771/2mb vram
smc etherpower pci

thanks - steve farrell
