Biostar was LAME back in the day.
So was MSI (to me)

But they've both come along nicely since then.

MSI had some of the BEST, SKT 939 boards.
I see Biostar with some NICE-LOOKING boards now - but I have no exp with them.

I would have to put mine towards DFI, but it's not on the list.

Never had a Biostar board give me problems, ever. Surprised they got more votes than MSI.

You forgot Jetway, DFI, and EVGA, btw.

OP, you need to add this option to the poll.

I suspect some people may have even forget their bullcrap (having switched from them years ago).
