“As a motherboard, the Dragon Plus is everything the
Dragon was, plus a bit more, with the increased performance, the
smartcard reader and the Front USB ports. It is, in my opinion, at
the top of the KT266A-based boards, and Athlon boards in general,
both in terms of performance and features. If the question is
between a DDR Athlon platform and an RDRAM Pentium IV platform, the
answer at the moment is certainly the Athlon. A recent bug has
cropped up between Athlons and the Linux AGP driver, but
workarounds are available. The Soyo Dragon Plus is an all-around
great board, and is available from NewEgg for $146 plus
shipping.”
