    ASUS RMA Policy?

    Asus states they have a 3 year warranty... this was one of the later Slot 1 boards... so theres a chance it still might be covered. I wish they had a lookup by serial number as they do with hard drives... :(

    NEC vs Mitsubishi??

    Hmm, so they probably are identical... may just end up going with the Mitsubishi anyway, because we need to get at least one of the Mitsubishis with the SpectraView color correction. I know the old Mitsubishis were built well, which is why I originally was looking for them. I agree that...
