[PLUG] Hardware acqusition - dumb newbie question


Salutations, gentlefolk,

Yours truly was surveying the pile of //junk// stuf in his home, concluded that
I have almost enuf parts to build another computer, thought 'twould be a good
idea to make it a Linux box and get started climbing the learning curve ...
(OK, an Asus PZL-97 motherboard and a Celeron-300, aren't the latest, but are
still too new to donate to museum)

Anyway, I'll need video and sound cards.  Want to make sure they have Linux
drivers.  Suggest, please, a good vendor.

Thanks very much,
Yours, John Desmond

PS - And if anyone wants to suggest a good distro to get staretd with .. ;-)
