i just got a ga-vaxp (athlon xp) from monarch computer for $108. the reviews i found on the net (tom's hardware for one http://www6.tomshardware.com/mainboard/02q4/021007/kt400-07.html) were all good. put redhat 8 on it last night. only problem i had was sound (like the other guy). found some good links to a freshrpms page that told how to setup ALSA, which i did. had a little wrangling with it, but eventually got it to work. my own theory is that since the sound chipset is newer, it may be a version or two before i won't have to do this with a fresh redhat install...
