Geoff,

Have a look at www.linitx.com

I know several people who have bought from them, and all speak highly.

Regards,

Mark

Chaps,

I'm thinking of building a mini-ITX form-factor box (as the price point and physical size means I can replace my PIII500 tower box with with somthing the size of a house brick).

Questions:
1. Does anyone know of places that sell this kind of kit cheap?  The best quote for what I need so far is £282.02.

2. Does anyone know what support there is for the motherboard devices (Sound, Graphics, NIC) under Linux?  

3. Do you know if you can disable the onboard AGP in favour of a PCI graphics card (You can pick up a nice half-height GeForce PCI card that would fit on a PCI riser inside a tiny case..)?
