I prefer Supermicro Motherboards. I have been having good results with the
supermicro P6SBA with a PII 450 mhz chip. (I have not brought one up as
Linux yet tho)
The celeron is a sx vs a dx type chip for $50 bucks more I would buy the
PII. The P6SBA uses the slot type chip not the socket 7 type. I have built
5 machines with no complaints yet. Very fast and very stable.It supports the
Celeron SEPP 266-433MHZ and the PII 233-450MHZ and all PIII.
