Need Motherboard input for evaluation with Debian Woody

[John Foster <jfoster@augustmail.com>]

Anyone who has a few minuts to blow. I need input on the perfoemance of
several motherboards with Debian and your experiences with both
robustness as servers and performance as single user desktops in a
graphics intense environment.
1. Asus P4T with 1.5 Ghz Intell P-IV cpu
2. MSI 850 Pro2 with 1.5 Ghz Intell P-IV cpu

3. Asus CUV4X-D dual P-III 1.13 Ghz CPU
4. MSI 694D Pro2 dual P-III 1.13 Ghz CPU

Which is faster; dual cpu PIII or single cpu PIV. These machines will
not ever be exposed to Microsoft software so I am only concerned with
performance using Linux. I prefer Debian of course but anyone with
experience with other distros are welcome. All boards will have memory
of 2 Gb. And will be using a video card with 32 Mgb of memory.
Thanks ALL!
John
