[plug] all-in-one motherboards

[Chris Caston]

I always tend to buy the motherboard blindly without researching it.

I've never come up against any problems running a unstable with Kudzu
for PnP and more recently Mandrake 10. 

OTOH I'm not fusy about graphics cards drivers and if KDE runs KDE runs.
I don't play games.

regards,

Chris Caston
