     I don't know all of the compatibility issue but I'm pretty sure that the HP is the Only supported platform. I'm all for going off the ranch when it comes to supported systems but support for our DS is too important for me to take the risk.

    HP is the only "supported" platform.  Due to the tight integration, I wouldn't recommend any variation from that.  The xw8400 is the last CPU that will support the Nitris boardset.  If price is the reason you're looking elsewhere than HP, check out http://www.lamicrogroup.com for refurbished HP's with warranty.
