I have Abit's IC7-G MaxII Advance board. It is truly a very stable board, even when overclocked. well worth its salt.
This Max3 board simply seems like a MaxII but with a couple added Frills, a few more SATA hookups, this elusive 'Secure IDE', and a fan to cool the capacitors, which I never thought caused much of a problem. There also seems to be a new northbrdge fan that looks like it might cool better. As one who hasn't read too much about this board, I'm wondering how much more they're going to charge for it, provided there SEEMS to be nothing special added to it.
Unless I'm missing something huge, who knows?
And I'm Spock.
We also have an internal file-sharing service on our campus, an open-source Gnutella client called Gnucleus. Like you said, tons of speed, tons of content and participation. By the end of one academic year, I had filled several hundred GB of movies and music. I've also heard wonderful things about DirectConnect. The great thing is, the **AA can't snoop around and find out what you're sharing. From my experience, network administrators tend to get mighty touchy when someone from the outside intrudes on the network.
This is definitely something that needs to be adopted by all.
