Liantec (and Comell) is a company tricky to deal with, they are shipping boards but you need to order large quantities. They don't seem to have a very solid distributor network. My last order took about 4 months to get a hold off... I do have some 5740 units here, they run OpenBSD but they tend to be a bit on hot side. Have a look some of the benchmarks Fkr did, comparing it to a soekris 5501 http://blog.bytemine.net/ More info about the 5740 can be found on http://liantec.kd85.com/ dmesg: OpenBSD 4.3 (GENERIC) #698: Wed Mar 12 11:07:05 MDT 2008 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC cpu0: VIA Eden Processor 1000MHz ("CentaurHauls" 686-class) 1 GHz cpu0: FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,CMOV,PAT,CFLUSH,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,TM,SBF,SSE3,EST,TM2,xTPR cpu0: RNG AES AES-CTR SHA1 SHA256 RSA real mem = 468152320 (446MB) avail mem = 444497920 (423MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+ BIOS, date 02/25/08, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xfa0e0, SMBIOS rev. 2.3 @ 0xf0000 (34 entries) bios0: vendor Phoenix Technologies, LTD version "6.00 PG" date 02/25/2008 bios0: VIA Technologies, Inc.
