   Have a look at the Ars Technica system guides for suggestions on rolling
   your own PC.  They discuss three general-purpose systems with an eye
   towards good gaming performance: the Budget Box ($600-$800), the Hot Rod
   (slightly higher-end at $1400-1600), and the God Box for when you hit
   the lottery.

   They don't emphasize any one OS, so check against the FreeBSD hardware
   compatibility list.

We are reluctant to admit that we owe our liberties to men of a type that
today we hate and fear - unruly men, disturbers of the peace, men who resent
and denounce what Whitman called "the insolence of elected persons" - in a
word, free men.     --Gerald W. Johnson, American Freedom and the Press, 1958
