I am stuck between the Tyan Tiger 133 (1834), MSI 694 Pro, and waiting for the Abit VP6. I am planning on buying 1 P3 733 to start with and getting another one as soon as I can afford it. I don't really care about overclocking - I just want a reliable, stable motherboard that's easy to install and setup. Does anybody have any advice or comments?

Thanks

I just noticed that Abit now has the VP6 listed on their products page. Previously the only information about it was in their news section. Maybe this means it's coming soon. I just wanna know how much it is going to sell for at this point.

I can't wait any longer. Is the VP6 worth the wait? Do you know if it will have 4-way memory interleave enabled in the bios? The MSI 694D Pro 100 has IEEE 1394? Cool.
