>>>I use Asus boards and have little problem with them. There is one thing to 
look out for . Asus is the subcontractor for a lot of different boxes and use 
different chip sets even in the same series. The thing with Asus is to 
identify the chip set on the mb and make your decision on the basis of how 
well that particular chip runs on the particular linux distro you plan to 
use. Some linux distros run chip sets that others won't run.
