Here's some other messages / questions I've gotten lately:

TV-Out is enabled during boot. I can enter the BIOS, see the
Mandrake boot screen, etc. I don't have a VGA device hooked up, so I
don't know if both would be enabled during boot if the Asus sees two
devices.

Well, I certainly was willing to try it out, so I did. The advantage
of a P4 vs a Celeron at that speed has to do with cache size and FSB
(400 vs. 533). The core is the same. I haven't run into any
problems with the 2.4Ghz Celeron, and it cost about half of a P4
2.4Ghz CPU.
