All,

Team Applications did some preliminary work, and here's what we are looking at so far.
---------------------------------------------
Browser - Firefox, with flashgot, filterset g, and a couple of greasemonkey scripts
Office  - 
           Excel  - Gnumeric OO.o's Calc? 
           Powerpoint - OO.o's Impress
           Word  - Abiword
           Publisher - Scribus?
Calculator - gcalctool xcalc?
Images 
           Viewer- eye of gnome (eog)
           Photoshop - GIMP GIMPshop?
           Paint  - xpaint
AntiVirus - Clam AntiVirus?
Emulator - WINE
Editors 
           Text - VIm, Gedit
           IDE  - Eclipse (possibly the Omondo plugin)
Media   - Mplayer? VLC?
Burning - GnomeBaker?
Audio   
          Sound Recorder - gnome-sound-recorder?
          Audio Mixer    - Audacity?
----------------------------

We wanted to ask:
 1) Any categories or specific applications we left off that you all know of?
 2) OS: Anything on this list that you think would be especially difficult to get working with what you all are looking at? Any suggestions for programs that would be easier?
 3) OS: Are you going to have something like SELinux on there to lock down the systems?
 4) Hardware: Eclipse is pretty memory intensive, we understand. But we'd really like to use it for our graphical IDE.  Do you think our hardware will be capable of running it, at least moderately well?

Jason

Hi guys,

For next Monday we are just splitting up the different parts and everyone can try to find the best/cheapest one. Here's what we've got:

Hard Drive  - Tim
Mobo - Josh
Case/PSU - Will
Monitor - Sarah

Memory
Keyboard
Mouse

So Noah/Jeremy, can you guys try to come up with something for the Memory/Keyboard/Mouse? Josh found a website with like a $3 keyboard, so maybe you can get that from him. Also we have to make sure that the memory will work with the motherboard.

We're assuming that the mobo will have onboard video/processor/sound etc.

Tim
