Forgot to mention another interesting point about this =
motherboard......it does not have parallel or serial ports for mouse, =
modem or keyboard, its a usb 1.1 , usb 2.0 and firewire system so if I =
decide to buy it I will also have to purchase a usb 1.1 keyboard and =
mouse. I have never installed any flavor of Linux on a system that used =
a usb mouse and keyboard.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what my chances of having a smooth =

installation will be with all the built-in features of this =
motherboard such
as built-in networking, sound, usb 2.0, etc. I don't want to even buy =

I can only use it for Windows. I am currently using Mandrake and =
Redhat at
home but want to try Suse as well.
Thanks in advance for any insight you are able to off
