In getting a no-name 386 system, it seems that the motherboard choice is very
critical.  Several months ago, PC Magazine reviewed about 110 386 systems.   

Among the manufacturers who used a "name brand" third party motherbaord, it
seemed that most used AMI.  A few used Micronics, and almost no one used
Mylex.  

However, if I read the ads for motherboards in newspapers in the Bay Area,
stores seem to carry Micronics and Mylex more than AMI.


Comments anyone?
