The D510MO was discontinued by Intel. I'd go with the Intel MW525 board instead. You can buy them from almost everyone and they work well with LinuxCNC. Plus they have a real DB25 LPT port! :-) They take laptop memory instead of desktop memory sticks but that has been cheaper the last time

I second the D525MW - Used it on my last build with a solid state drive. Very nice. DougM On Wed, Feb 8, 2012 at 12:31 PM, Dave e...@dc9.tzo.com wrote: The D510MO was discontinued by Intel. I'd go with the Intel MW525 board instead.  You can buy them from almost everyone and they work well

And, I'll third the MW525 motherboard. Remember to turn off hyper-threading in the bios, though. It is my first linuxcnc machine, and the install (with gecko g540) went incredibly well. I think that the memory i purchased was something like $14.99 or so for each 2meg module; I could be

Oops...sorry. I didn't realize the D510MO was discontinued. The same components with a MW525 motherboard should be equally reliable however. That's a good tip to turn off hyper-threading in the bios! Jim -Original Message- From: James Louis [mailto:james.lo...@gastechnology.org] Sent:
