I'm considering the SY-K7VM333, but I'm more interested in the company's
general reputation.
Thanks.

Good luck.
I saw a short time ago Soyo is getting out of the Motherboard business.

Not exactly...
"Ming Chok, president and CEO of Soyo Group, said the U.S.-based
company is still making motherboards."

TeleDale said:I bought a new Soyo motherboard around 4 years ago, and I had written to
the
company quite a few times with questions regarding the types of memory
acceptable and other setup questions. I never heard back from anyone, no
replies by email, fax or phone..
About a year later (the motherboard was then one year old), the onboard
sound
died, and I couldn't get it to work again.
I got rid of this motherboard and replaced it with a good used one from a
different computer. I've never purchased a motherboard since, and if I
had to,
I would not get another Soyo. I would also stay away from anything from
IBM. I
had a new IBM hard drive, and when I had swapped motherboards, I had a
lot of
difficulty in setting up the hard drive again. I called IBM technical
support,
spoke to the guy and told him that I would send a fax with all of the
specific
details. I did that and never heard back from anyone. This incident
occured 3
years ago, and I had faxed and refaxed and refaxed the stuff about 15
times.
IBM did not contact me- no emails, faxes, phone calls, nothing.
I don't know who you can trust these days.

another Soyo MB.
I also found the company quite unresponsive to my pleas for
support. I might also add that there have been a substantial
number of complaints from consumers over Soyo's failure to
honor rebates. It doesn't speak well of the company.
