Part of my problem is the lack of documentation for anaconda and the build 
process ... yes, I know that some folks working on fedora-docs is in the 
process of fixing this but it is not there yet.  I am slowly fumbling through 
this but it is taking time.

Part of my original desire to get the Gigabyte MB was that it looked real good 
(on paper), lots of the same hardware as on my dual Athlon MB and I knew that 
worked well.  Bute, and it is a big BUT, being told that it will ship "real 
soon now" just does not cut it.

I assumed that some hardware such as the NIC on the MB was not going to work 
but am really surprised by the interaction with the Dell 2000FP monitor.  
Given that bad values could actually destroy a monitor (according to Mike 
Harris) does not give me warm feelings about the MB.
