I'm currently using a 2ghz xp computer that I've had for a few years now, and want to go with a new computer.

I have a 120gig slave hd that I can donate to a new computer.

Everything else I need new though. I only built a computer once, 850mhz amd, but I'm not familiar with all the new stuff that has come out since then.

I'm in college, I use my computer for all purposes. I want to install a linux distro on the new computer so I can get to learn it well.

I'm looking for suggestions what motherboard/cpu would be good at a reasonable price... What websites give the best deals on hardware?

I like tricky neat stuff, any new cutting edge oddball stuff I'd like to learn about also.
