1 Hello.

3 My motherboard is an ASUS M2N-E. Not high end. And I have my doubts
4 about it at times. At first, especially, there were moments. It's
5 been less than six months. I got the MB as a kit with CPU and 1GB of
6 RAM. I have upgraded the RAM to 2GB as a kit of Dual Channel ram.
7 Earlier, I only had a single stick of RAM. I've been through a
8 succession of Motherboards and etc. in the case, which I bought in
9 about 1997.

11 The 10000RPM Sata drive is an important addition.

13 If I could have my druthers, I'd be running a Tyan. I have such a MB
14 at work with dual Opterons. There is a feeling of excellence to it,
15 but it comes at a cost. It would be interesting to set two dual core
16 Opterons on that board. One Day.
