Hi,

I have a few PC hardware questions for new technologies I don't quite
understand. I've been out of the new PC loop for several years, I'm finally
replacing my p3 600E system.

PCI-E ::: Can anyone tell me what PCI express is ... the difference between
a standard PCI slot etc ... what it will be used for?

DVD-RAM ::: My new DVD burner will support R/W DVD-RAM at 5x. I have no clue
what this means.
