>Asus P2B; P2B-L (my personal top choice), Tom's hardware site I'm planning on picking up the P2B-L version this board in my next system. It comes with a built in Intel fast-ethernet NIC, and costs only about $40-50 more than the P2B. -The P2B-L version of the board has 4, not 3 DIMM sockets, and keeps the same number of PCI slots (4 total, with one shared) that the P2B has. This gives networkers an extra slot over the P2B. (Also, if I recall correctly the P2B can access a whole Gig of SDRAM.)< -------------------- The Asus P2B-L is hard to come by. ESC technology has been trying to buy them but can't even find any. I like the idea of having a slot just for the NIC and thus maintaining 4 PCI slots for other things. Also, what would be some things to fill up my ISA slots with to preserve the PCI slots? sound card? anything else? S.W.
