	(You're right, Kent, Seymour's law is still true...  So, 
	this 1.4 should be plenty fast.)

	Anyway, this one can be a starting point if/when I spring
	for it.  But what about the Video and Sound?  Are the FBSD 
	problems going to ID the kind of chipsets on this board?

	Would you gents, Chris, Kent, Kris, recommend a second or
	second and third fan?  The AMD's are known to run hot.
	This is at computersonics, just down the hill and a few/several
	bloks east.
