Greetings,
I need to build a LIGHT duty server.  It will
have very little processing done (A character
based application only).  It needs to be reliable
though, and as always....needs to be economical.

Here's what I was thinking:
Abit KT7 Motherboard with Duron 750, 128MB PC100
  $199.00
ATX 300w PS case $49
104 key keyboard
IBM 15GB IDE ATA100 hard drive.
1.44MB floppy.
56X CDROM
Link-sys 10/100 PCI Ethernet adapter.
Haven't decided on a video card.

Also, I need to get a backup tape drive for ~$300.
The FAQ says any SCSI tape, etc.  But surely we
have some practical advice on brand/model.

I have the FreeBSD 4.0-release CD Set, and plan to
use it.  

BTW, this system will NOT be running X.

thanks for any advice,
-Darryl
