Re: Hardware Database?

[Marty Connor <mdc@entity.com>]

I am planning to do this. I have a server allocated, and am attempting as 
per a suggestion from Ken Yap to have it linked to a database engine such 
that it can be modified over the web. 

If anyone has source material for the database I'd be grateful. The whole 
thing will be open source, of course. My initial idea is to have a a page 
for each card, with a picture of the card, if possible, specs, driver 
notes, urls for setup info, etc. Any and all suggestions welcome. I hope 
to have something up by Halloween.
