JK> I am looking to buy a 1 Gig HD and a 16550 UART card to go with it.  Any

At 1 Gig pretty much no matter who you go to they'll give you a good deal..     
just not Maxtor.. they are really going down the tubes.. Here are the only      
ones that I would use..

Yes, even Seagate.. I hate them.. but their 1.oo+ Gig drives are decient..      
if your interested let me know.
