[CS-FSLUG] mini-ITX question

[Ron Thompson]

Thanks Warren,

   my son, Nathan, who is also on this list, ordered one for me today.  He 
works at a local computer shop and I asked him to pick one out and order it.  
I don't know exactly what I'm getting :-)  But Nathan is familiar with Linux 
and knows what I'm looking for.  This will be a general use machine, and for 
experimenting with some amateur radio related software..
