[Cialug] Where to find older parts?

[Theron Conrey]

I can verify that the nforce works great with Debian.  And if you're 
going that route there's a great board at newegg that also overclocks 
well.  I'd like to throw out there that I am not a big proponent of 
Biostar, however this IGP board that they've got is solid, and prob more 
inportant for you, relatively cheap.  You might find something 
comparable cheaper elsewhere.

BIOSTAR M7NCG 400 Socket A (Socket 462) NVIDIA nForce2 IGP Micro ATX AMD 
Motherboard - Retail
