Joy of building a new machine, priceless. For everything else there is
NewEgg.

The MB has Nvidia 6150 on board, with VGA, DVI and Component out. It also
has Intel HD Audio, Gigabit ethernet, USB2, Firewire.

XvMC is still not working with 6150, but the the cpu seems to be able to
handle HDTV without it. And nvidia will eventually come through.

Everything works except network card stops working intermittently. I'm using
forcedeth driver which is not stable yet, but in time... For now I have put
$10 Linksys card in that does the job.
