Re: I'd like to know what hardware is the best for Linux and Windows 95



Hi, guys! I still have several questions. If you guys don't mind giving 
me informative information, I'd appreciate it.

Ok. Having a CD-ROM dirve is convenient, but do I have to have a 4X 
drive? I mainly use my 2X CD-ROM drive (my old 486DX2-66) to install 
programs and to retrive data. Yes, it's convenient since I don't have to 
swap lots of diskettes to install programs, and I retreive lots 
information on data structres and algorithms on the CD-ROM. (By the way, 
I think this CD-ROM disk is very good. It's from the "Dr.Dobb's"  
magazine. The CD-ROM disk contains six books on data structures and 
algorithms. Also, it has a powerful search engine).

Sorry, I'm little offthe subject I was talking about. There is one more 
question on the CD-ROM dirve. Does anyone know about the company called 
"Nakamich?" According to the computer catalog, 

	*Nakamich MBR-7
	 7-Disk CD-ROM Changer (2X Speed)
	 $149.99

I've never heard about this company. If anyone knows this company or this 
product, please let me know.

Could you trust Mag? I don't know much about the company. I generally 
trust copanies like, NEC, Nanao, Nokia and Sony.

Sincerely,
