De acuerdo con Fred.  ASUS is not a favorite brand in my book.  Windows
users seem to love ASUS but then again, they tend to love ATI as well.
<shrug>  The boards that I have come to like is the MSI board.  I am
running an MSI KT7266-Pro (I think that is the model anyway) and have
had zero problems with it.  Abit, like Fred said, is also a reliable
motherboard manufacturer.

Small aside, why can't America make this stuff?  It would actually work
well, be designed to run underwater and in space unsheilded from UV rays
and probably only cost $10 more.  (Perhaps some slight exageration on my
part, but I think you get my point.  Why is all tech stuff made in
[China|Taiwan|Malaysia|Japan], besides cheap labor?)
