LS-120. Are you using it with WinNT?

Yes, NT and Win95.

If so why can't you install enough of WinNT on a LS-120 disk so that you could boot from it?

I don't know. Recent mobo bios has LS120 options so I would guess it is possible. A comfortable OS configuration with OS and basic applications will be bigger than 120 MB.

I do not want to just boot my machines. I want to boot a fully configured machine. I have all but decided on the removable harddrive for an alternative boot..too good to pass up. 6 gig and simple configuration for $150 including removable tray blows the socks off LS120.

Anyone, do the fiber washers go between the mobo and the case? or between the screw head and the mobo. I think someone answered this but I can't find it.

Motherboards: ASUS P2B-S vs SuperMicro P6SBU

Anyone have any comments about either of these two motherboards?

I'm trying to determine if one of these is going to be in my dream machine.

TIA
