I've been running on an M2N-SLI deluxe and it's incredibly stable.  There
is a minor issue with the 2nd ethernet port, but the board has taken
everything I've thrown at it.  It runs 11 hard drives, 3 video cards, a
PCI tuner, an HDHR, a slew of keyboards, mice, and DVD players, and serves
as the primary BE/FE for the house, as well as my webserver for 3
websites.

By far the best non-server-class mobo for server use that I've found.  :-)

You are an adult when you realize that everyone's an idiot sometimes. You
are wise when you include yourself.
