I'm looking at an ASUS ad in c't (german magazine) about
a.m. mobo.

It looks very good (paperwise :-)

 - Dual Pentium Pro 150..200 MHz
 - 8 MB to 1 GB w/ ECC support
 - Intel Orion chipset
 - 32-bit PCI and 32-bit EISA
 - 6 x 32-bit PCI slots
 - 2 x 32-bit EISA slots
 - 1 x ASUS MediaBus (PCI + ISA) slot
 - 1 x floppy port (up to 2.88 MB)
 - 2 x serial ports (16550 fast UART compatible)
 - 1 x parallel port (EPP, ECP port)
 - IrDA TX/RX Header  <------------------- don't know what's this
 - AMI Pentium Pro processor PCI BIOS with Plug and Play,
   Green and NCR SCSI BIOS
 - Full AT size (13.1" x 12.1")

I'm mostly interested in experiences w/ BSD/OS or FreeBSD but would
like to hear any good or bad things about it...
