Hi there!
I got this hardware:

* Pentium 3 Mobile 600Mhz
* HDD 2.5'' 20GB
* 128 MB RAM
* PCMCIA Ethernet Card

What i want:

* A case for the new PC. A little case (CUBE CASE) with Power Unit
(Power Supply) in it
* A motherboard were i can connect the Pentium 3 Mobile
* And if possible a video card in the motherboard (built-in)

Objective: Make a small server for home (Linux based)

Please reply with links for solutions.
Money is a issue, so cheap is good for me :D
 
You won't get anything that will take a p3 mobile 600. Instead get either the via system with a 1gig processor soldered to the board
or a p4 board and use a celeron. Chuck the netcard because the new board will have it on board. You'd probably have to chuck the ram
also as I presume it is laptop ram, which just leaves you with the hdd. If cost is an issue the cube configuration usually costs
more so it might be better to just go with a normal pc. Maybe then just get a second hand pentium 3 system.
