MSI K7T Pro2 The MSIs are decent MBs. I just happened to be lucky enough to get one that crapped out durring the burn-in phase. It was the 3rd MSI board I've had.
The first still powers my Linux box, no probs. My second is being used by my dad to run his 1.3 Ghz system with 1 Gig of RAM. It's still humming right along. The K7T Pro2 got a good review from sharkyextreme (8.5). While not quite as fast as some of the other boards, the aditional features such as Live Update, ATA 100 IDE controler, built-in RAID 0 and 1 IDE controlers, and FuzzyLogic III, with its real time over clocking feature, still make it a good buy for the money. All 3 of them have been rock solid stable. I currently have my FSB raised from 133 Mghz to 146 Mghz which overclocks my CPU by 160 Mghz, the PCI clock by 3.2 Mghz, and the AGP clock by 6.5 Mghz and the system hasn't even blinked. The chasis temp. has only gone up 1 F on average and is still well under the 140 F redline. If I got a case with better ventalation, I could probably raise the FSB even more. Even though one crapped out on me, I'd still recomend an MSI board for those who want a pretty good price to performance ratio.
