I'd go USPS...  if you send UPS or FedEx you're likely to hit the recipient with taxes and duties (are they the same thing?).  Send USPS and check off "gift" and put a low value.

Our shipper here says that UPS is back to work effective Nov 24, 2004.  So hopefully I'll be getting my long awaited motherboard.

As for shipping, I have received packages through DHL where the charges were the same as USPS.  I think this was for their economy service.  Can anyone confirm?

Yeah I think DHL is more reasonable than UPS. UPS also protects themselves from complaints by posting the rates on their site. Don't import ANYTHING through UPS......
