Abit's New Motherboard Lays On The Ports

Posted by timothy on from the but-only-the-newfangled-ports dept.

An enthusiastic reader submits: "Possibly the most innovative motherboard to be released in years, Abit's MAX series intends to dive headfirst into the next generation of computing, leaving legacy ports behind in their dust. Hardcoreware.net has the first full review of this board, which has support for 10 USB devices and 12 (YES, 12) IDE devices." I wish it had even more built-in USB ports, but six is a good start.

    I've got plenty of working ISA cards. TRUE geeks don't buy new hardware just because it's new. TRUE geeks keep working shit working. People who buy the latest and greatest the second it comes out are called wannabe's.

    So, why exactly are you not only reading, but also posting, to Slashdot?

    TRUE geeks buy hardware 'cause it's new and 'cause it lets you do more things faster.

    Actually, true geeks design their own hardware from the circuit level up.
