Thanks for all the advice. I received the computer yesterday and had a little time to mess with it. It has Award Modular Bios and it does support virtualization. PCUSA loaded the Windows on the system so I do not know if they used SLP or not. I will try to make a virtual image. Windows 7 seems OK however I am looking forward to Debian. I am interested in seeing if Debian supports all the drivers (AMD 890 chipset, USB3.0, SATA3, and the on board lan). I would also eventually like to try Linux BIOS. I never used a 64 bit machine so that maybe an adventure. The Gigabyte board looks really good. It has all high quality Japanese capacitors, etc and a thick copper plate in the board to keep it cool.
