So the nForce2s are troublesome.  And VIAs are troublesome.  Doesn't
leave many options for Athlon systems.  Is SiS therefore the best, or
are the nForce2s generally OK once APIC is disabled?  I've been trying
to figure this out lately before deciding what to buy, and am just
curious.

(This is not very on-topic except that it may be used for an upgrade
to my MythTV box, so replies should probably be directed to me instead
of the list)
