Okay, I am going to build a dedicated Linux box, no more of this dual boot
stuff. I am looking for a recommendation for a good P4 motherboard with
preferably 2 legacy ATA (right term?) headers, on-board audio, and at least 3
usable legacy PCI slots. PCIx for video card a bonus. Must play well with
Linux!
Thanks!!
