Video board, CD-ROM drive



Shalom all around.
I need advice to help new potential Linux user about to purchase a machine.
None of the following two devices is listed in the HOWTO's.

1-Has anybody used the following video board (XFree86 of course):
  PCI 1MB ARC1000 OCTEK  (the chipset is ARC or ARK says the dealer) ?

2-Has anybody used the following IDE-ATAPI CD drive:  ACER CD-743E ? 
The Hardware Howto seems to suggest that any IDE-ATAPI drive would
  work. Can somebody positively confirm that I read correctly?

THANKS IN ADVANCE
