[ale] WTB'uild': dual proc system...

I am exploring assembling ('building') a dual pentium II (at least 
233mz) as my home machine. I will primarily be running Linux and NT,
with some OS/2 work occasionally. I am looking for motherboard 
recommendations/pricing, chip pricing, personal experience from 
others who have done this. I am just starting this, and really want
to 'do it right', especially from the Linux perspective. FWIW, I
have been running Slackware, just bought RH 5.0, havent had a
chance to install it on my thinkpad yet (380ED).

And, in case someone has input on the next 2 somewhat off-topic 
items, I hope you will pardon me for including them also:

I am looking to purchase a legal Office 95 cdrom. Please email me
what you have and price. Must be completely legal, cdrom key, etc...
Just found 97 to be too 'bloated'...

I am also looking to purchase a parallel port Zip drive for use with
a couple of notebooks, using NT, OS/2 and Linux.

All offers/correspondence looked at, appreciated. Thanks in advance...
