Close,

I use the P2B-D (No SCSI on MB) with the BIOS version 1012b.

I'm using 2*PIII-550 with excellent results.

ASUS *used* to have their own news server but had to take it down
because people were only complaining at the lack of service/support from
ASUS, which made newcomers to the list go look for another MB. ;-)

Personally, I'm *very* satisfied with my MB.

Regards
Gustav
