Not bad for a very basic, non-power user system IMHO. Put a cheap Duron on there, and you're in business for very little money.
 
Only thing I don't like about these little things is that if you buy it to create a small cheap computer you have to try and find a mATX case with a good power supply or pay a premium to replace the 150 watt they mostly come with.
Of course you will say "toss it into a midtower case", well then why not spend $10 more on the K7S5A then and have onboard LAN too and more upgrade options and resale value when grandma kicks the bucket. (or wants the new 8ghz Bathlon seXP processor) 😉
 
there are a bunch of cases at directron that are micro atx and have beefy power supplies. the inwin v500 i used to have , and it can take any standard atx power supply.
 
FYI - the notes say that it only supports "AMD Duron processors up to 850MHz." That would imply that it does *not* support the 1000 Morgan core. Any owners out there have any luck?
 
Let me reiterate, Yes, they take the morgan cores just fine. I have run both a Morgan 1 gig duron and a morgan core 1.2 gig duron on this board. You have to flash to the latest bios.
