I use a P6DNF Rev 1 for my FreeBSD development machine, and wcarchive uses
a P6DNF Rev 3.  I only have a single processor right now, and will soon be
upgrading.  It is likely that the P6DNF will be a well supported board.

The only complaint that I have is that IMO the BIOS is a little bit of
a letdown from the ASUS P5 motherboards.
