[Bailey, Jonathan C]

I do love nForce also, but haven't seen one with support for PC133, which I need. memory isn't terribly cheap..

Given those 2 choices, I'd do the Asus /w SiS. I'm not a big fan of SiS, 
but they're better than they used to be.

Can you find one with the nVidia chipset? There were a lot of nForce IGP 
mobo's out there that would work well in this situation. They were a bit 
pricey when they were new, but now the should be pretty good.

I'm running nForce mobo's in several Shuttle XPC's and they work great. 
They have integrated sound, video and network, it all works well under 
Linux (haven't tried Ubuntu on them, but MDK works out of the box).
