Last month i was reading about this SERIAL ATA that is actually takeing place of the rumors of IDE 2...

There are currently 2 mobos out there that have it... a soyo dragon p4s-648... and some other one for a AMD processor.... i only glimsed the name once... Does anyone out there have this sucka yet? if so how does it perform?

Alos another soon to be on all boards feature ... 8x AGP l20X0l25

After scratching and clawing my way through various manufacturers, Seagate finally came through and is the first to actually get us a next-generation ATA drive. Just the 2-meg P-ATA rather than the 8-meg S-ATA that many readers are drooling over... but it is production-class and the same thing readers should be able to purchase any day now if not already. We still remember the fierce debate between readers when we published early results that had to be revised those from later units.

From Storage Review

Nothing really definite but a couple model numbers

Personally I'd wait to see their take on it before considering buying one

Shuttle has an Serial ATA motherboard, and I believe Gigabyte does as well.
