A thought on the hard drives...We really don't need to put PBW on used drives. Most data loss is caused by failed IDE hard drives. So if you have a new drive, that would be cool. But a used drive with unknown amuont of hours on it is asking for trouble.

With 80GB HDD's going for 50 bucks these days, you are probably right it makes sense just to buy a new one.

I can get another licensed copy of an operating system, so that's not a problem.
