Summary: Improving on the 6300

Greetings.  This article is intended for all those who always wanted to tell
someone what they can do with their PC 6300.  I have a basic machine, 640k
with a modem as the only peripheral.  Since I am a very greedy fellow, I'd
like to know what I can do with it.  My eventual goal is to be running UNIX
and operating a bulletin board. With your help, I will achieve these lofty
goals. 
To put it simply, I am looking for add-ons and upgrades to make it stronger,
faster and better.  while I am new to this computer, I am not new to computer
construction, so don't be bashful.  Think of what your computer would be
like if you had an unlimited account.  
Specifically, I'm looking for the following:
Hard drives and cards
Monitors and video cards
Add-on boards and above boards
Math coprocessor  
Software
Alternate input devices (mice, light pens, etc.))
Anything else you can think of

I am doing my own research, but I thought I might as well use the resources
of the hundreds of people on the net.  Please EMAIL all responses, as 
I am on a remote linkup with my account this semester, and have to make 
every minute count.  I thank you very much for your time and efforts.  
If I can I will try to summarize if there is call for it.

Again, I thank you.  Have a nice day.
