For the record, the last board I got from atipa was an ASUS P2L97DS. I tried a Gigabyte GA-686DL2 but it wasn't stable so I returned it. The P2L97DS is running an smp snap from about 1 month ago, works GREAT! I do intend to get a Asus P2B-DS, but will probably wait till 450s are available. -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
