I've been running Warp 3/Connect on a Tyan S1590 with an AMD K6-2 400 MHz in
an AT full-tower case since 1999 (and on a DX-2/66 VLB in the same case since
1993 before that).
On 31 Oct the AT power supply quit. On 10 November I installed a replacement.
The next day my primary master (boot drive) quit. I give up on R&R.
I'm getting a new case, mobo, processor, RAM etc. -- keeping the HDDs (I had
more than two -- one will become a new boot drive), CD-RW, ZIP-100, etc.
How's this mobo for eCS 1.2 (ordered Friday)?

Planning an AMD Athlon 2700 or so to put on it, about 2 GB total of DDR RAM,

Friday also) is cheapest with good 2D acceleration. (I have to replace a
Matrox G200 with something acceptable to the ne mobo.)
Comments/suggestions/recommendations/etc. welcomed.
