The Unix Hardware Buyer HOWTO|
| The Unix Hardware Buyer HOWTO| Revision History |
|---|
| Revision 3.0 | 2004-02-21 | Revised by: esr | | Power-protection stuff moved to UPS HOWTO. DIMM memory is
gone. Tape drive don't make sense any more. Lots of the
theory from my "Ultimate Linux Box"
articles now lives here. | | Revision 2.4 | 2003-02-22 | Revised by: esr | | URL fixes. | | Revision 2.3 | 2002-08-06 | Revised by: esr | | Buying at the low end isn't a lose anymore. I recommend
Athlons. Nuked the section on video standards, EDID takes
care of all that now. Also removed the section on older
memory types. And keyboards, as the "ergonomic" ones all
vanished along with the 1990s carpal-tunnel scare. | | Revision 2.2 | 2002-08-05 | Revised by: esr | | New section on DVD drives. | | Revision 2.1 | 2002-07-08 | Revised by: esr | | Corrected Kingston URL. Various small updates for the last
year. This HOWTO is much more stable than it used to be. | | Revision 2.0 | 2001-08-09 | Revised by: esr | | Major update. Revisions based on Ultimate Linux Box experience.
Caches are on-chip now. DDS4 tape drives are here.
486 machines, CD caddies, and most non-DDS backup
technologies are gone. | | Revision 1.1 | 2001-06-13 | Revised by: esr | | Mid-2001 update. | | Revision 1.0 | 2001-02-06 | Revised by: esr | | Initial revision; but see the history in the introduction. |
