For small form factor (definitely not an ISeries LPAR <g>) I really like Via's mini-itx boards. Small size & low power requirement, with everything bar the kitchen sink on-board. I keep toying with the idea of using one in a custom case for the kids' next PC (an aging AMD K6 380MHz). Recently I read this announcement: <http://www.mini-itx.com/news/98402024/> and I now want a twin cpu mini-itx board to replace my current home server :) Regards, Martin -- martin@xxxxxxxxxx AIM/Gaim: DBG400dotNet http://www.dbg400.net /"\ DBG/400 - AS/400 & iSeries Open Source/Free Software utilities \ / Debian GNU/Linux | ASCII Ribbon Campaign against HTML mail & news X / \
