yeah ive checked out the website.....i actually should have gone there
before posting...it would have answered my questions....

theres a peripherals list there which lists all compatible peripherals. i am
assuming that these arent the ONLY peripherals that can be used. there are a
whole lot of other brands that can be used or are there some specific
combinations to watch out for? in particular how about memory? does the
memory NEED to be of a specific brand or can any brand do?
