The little lost angel

As per topic, which brand (i.e. Tyan, Supermicro etc) would usually be
the most troublefree dual or quad motherboard (either P4 Xeon or
Opteron) to use in a Linux setup? Thanks!

L.Angel: I'm looking for web design work.
If you need basic to med complexity webpages at affordable rates, email me :)
Standard HTML, SHTML, MySQL + PHP or ASP, Javascript.
If you really want, FrontPage & DreamWeaver too.
But keep in mind you pay extra bandwidth for their bloated code

I have built six systems so far using the Tyan S2885.
Five of the people I have built them for are firmly in
the Windows camp, but one uses Linux - several kinds -
and thinks the S2885 is the greatest thing since canned
beer.

For many users, the only downside to that board is that
the USB ports are all version 1.1 - so you would probably
want to install a card with USB 2.0 ports if you intend
to use things like USB printers, scanners, hard drives, etc.
