I assume the Gigabyte 6BXD (no on-board SCSI, unlike the 6BXDS) is also good. Both of these are BX-based (not LX), and are amazingly low-cost, *assuming* you can find one. When I could find them, I was able to locate the 6BXD for under US$160, although I ended up getting the 6BXDS for under US$240. -- Darryl Okahata darrylo@sr.hp.com DISCLAIMER: this message is the author's personal opinion and does not constitute the support, opinion, or policy of Hewlett-Packard, or of the little green men that have been following him all day.
