I tried turnpoint's earlier board.  It had memory timing problems that
they couldn't fix promptly and had to be returned.  (I wisely paid
by credit card. Though I never had reason to distrust them... other
than that they said the board worked and then that they'd have the
fix RSN, a la industry std... I feel that the extra charge for
using the card company as intermediary is mandatory.)

I have spoken with them since and understand that the current board
is entirely redesigned.  I'd probably give it a try, if I were in the 
market now.
