Not sure what you mean by lightweight, but I've been happy with Asus and
Gigabyte motherboards. STAY AWAY from Supermicro: we have a bunch of
servers with 64 cores - so we're talking high end - which we bought from
Penguin, and we've had a *bunch* m/b problems, as in, we've sent back a
number of them for repairs, where they replaced the m/b. So, if high-end
servers are like that, I do *not* trust their quality control.

      mark, hoping nixpam will let this through
