A question for you server builders

[Guest dan]

I'm getting ready to build a new server, from scratch. This will be for my

test lab so it won't be mission critical but obviously I want it to be

highly reliable. I'm pretty well set on the specifications for the server,

but when it comes to the motherboard it looks like I have the choice of

several manufacturers. Does anyone out there have any advice for me on

server motherboard manufacturers that are highly recommended, or should be

avoided? What's most important to me, beyond the feature set obviously, is a

reputation for high quality, and technical support if needed.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
