    ...is a piece of crap. Sort of...

    The Tyan 2460 (and I think 2462 and 2466) are the only boards with the 760MP chipset. Stay away from them if you don't like finicky computers. The 2460 will eat crappy memory like candy, not work with half the non-server-application cards you put in it, and do the famous 5v ATX connector burnout and take your PSU with it. However if you want a reliable server or mediocre workstation then I highly recommend it.

    Stupid thing won't accept the brand new NVTV tuner card I bought for it. The most important component now that it's an HTPC and it won't even boot with the thing in. Who wants to trade a single-CPU machine for it?

    Something tells me those weren't designed with HTPC or Media Center in mind.
    Nothing can stop me now, 'cause I don't care anymore.
