I use one from Nagasaki (which is the OpenBrick OEM) MS2300LLL Via 533/3xLAN. Good box. No major hassles. I boot from CF which is hdc1. I prepape the CF on a Windows machine. I've not been able to get USB storage for pen drives working on it. It is not really important and so I did not pursue it. I use Bering 1.0 stable.
I feel comfortable with external power supply as it is replaceable without opening the box and machine would not misbehave due to EMI/EMC problems.

Couple of questions: First, can you guys suggest a case having an internal power supply for the VIA mini ITX boards? The cases that I've come across on the net all use an external transformer block. Second, will I be able to boot off an ide-cf combo? Thanks, Stephen ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by:Crypto Challenge is now open!
