    ok, well I was planning on buying a no O/S computer...and was looking at the system specs and breaking down the parts and stuff on it before I make a decision to purchase it...


    but I noticed one thing..

    the motherboard...

    Foxconn 761GXK8MB-RS Socket 939 AMD Motherboard

    has SATA connectors...

    but they want to put a EIDE hard drive in it?....does that make any sense?
