You gentlemen would be very surprised to learn
how big tube audio is in Asia. AOpen is in Taiwan. 

This product was inevitable. 
You will see more PCs with tube audio sections built in. 

Some Slashdot people mocked the thing--
but that company will sell many tens of thousands
of mobos in Asian countries. 

(Actually, I thought seriously about making
a super-exotic PC with a built-in tube amplifier and a
big impressive looking art-deco cabinet with eye tubes
to indicate disk-drive status. But the FCC EMC testing
requirements were very costly to perform on PCs. I need
an investor to do this. Anyone got a spare $1 mil?)
