I'd like to hear some recommendations (and recommended vendors) for components known to be compatible with FreeBSD. Reliability is far and away my foremost concern, with price and performance being second and third. I'll need to replace the motherboard, SCSI host adapter, video card, and network card. I require 4 ISA slots, as I've got some legacy hardware that I need to be able to use in this machine. I especially need a vendor recommendation, as the wholesalers I deal with locally mostly sell crap.
