When I went "serious" after the initial couple of years of having 
anything to do with PCs (after C-64 and related :-) ) the only thing 
which was acceptable to me was the AMD - Intel "sucked".

The pre-loved mobo which I bought yesterday is the ASUS A7N8X Deluxe.

It's marked as "working" - and I don't doubt it - but I'll know tomorrow 
(provided I am not interrupted by such mundane things like cutting the 
lawns...... :-( ). Anyway, it will be either tomorrow or by no later 
this coming weekend.

I'll like to know more. Can you give me some references to reading material?

(Reason why I ask is that a group of us used to go every weekend to the 
Computer Fair held here every Saturday and we used to keep up with and 
talk about all the "latest" - but one of our members got himself deaded, 
we called him 'Nick', from a heart-attack 5 years ago (to the month) 
while driving home to his new home in the country, and since then the 
"group" fell apart, and I have not kept up-to-date with developments.)

Cold fusion or nuclear?
