If it's for a desktop deployment that roams in the Flash/Internet world, you might want to keep in mind that for now, a 32-bit OS is going to be your best bet. However, Adobe announced the other day that they would be sending 64-bit Flash love to the Linuxers first, and then to the Mac/Windows guys. Their rationale for that deployment schedule is that we Linuxers were the ones requesting it the loudest!
As far as the hardware, I've not had any problems with any ASUS boards yet :-) . Good luck with your build! Jim Peterson Technology Coordinator Goodnight Memorial Library 203 S.
