Counting those acquired used, I've used boards from virtually every manufacturer. Everyone makes some bad ones. Sometimes the only problem is a BIOS defect, which ought to be easy to fix, but sometimes never happens. ATM my 2 24/7 systems are based on Intel 478 & 775 chips on PC Chips and Abit boards with Intel chipsets. > PS: Is it like, most Linux users test Asus Mainboards? are those mainboards > so common? Here the most common are MSI and PCChips =/ > PS2: 29.5% of DVD ISO yah for me ^^; 3 more days =P~ The Asus URL I provided is not about product engineering quality. The problem is about the sufficiency of manufacturer support for those in the unfortunate circumstance of needing it while not being a windoz user. -- "Let your conversation be always full of grace."
