of this MB.Is this a reasonable price for decent equipment, or is thsi like
a PCChips MB?

I am currently using a Matsonic 5120 with a 233mhz MMX Pentium and 98mb of
ram
i have mine clocking 275mhz with no overheating at all ,,,,,runs very cool
and stable...would recommend this combination to anyone and the price is not
too bad if the setup is new....just remember that with this board you will
not be able to upgrade the processor above the 233mhz Pentium however you
can increase speed via the 75mhz bus speed, which I have done and the
voltage settings, which I have chosen not to do because of the heat
generated...Hope this helps
