I've got three mATX machines going here. I've had really good luck with ABIT mATX motherboards. I like nForce based motherboards because I know for a fact that does very well under Linux and usually has some kind of nVidia-based onboard video card. I've had LESS luck with ECS and MSI boards, but that was probably because I got cheapo ECS and MSI boards, fo rwhen I have a budget of < $300. And even then the problems were not compatibility. I'm going to be rebuilding my media machine soon, which is on a mATX right now, but I'm moving it to a 'real' ATX because I need to put a 'real' video card in it. Ok, I'm doign that cause I'm upgrading my desktop's video card so I'll have a pretty nice card for the media center machine. Trying to find a decent CASE is my problem. -Yaron --
