MSI K7 Master (MS-6341) the good, the bad, and the ulgy. What do you know?

Does anyone know anything about the K7 Master (MS-6341). I'm looking at their website. It appears that it doesn't support sdram. Are there any good motherboards out that support both DDRAM and SDRAM? $270 is a little steep for just a motherboard isn't it?

The "master" has u160 onboard, that's why it is expensive.

What's that?

I'm just looking for a stable mobo (no overclocking) that supports both DDRAM (when it gets cheaper) and SDRAM (to use until the DDRAM drops). I'm going to use with the 266 bus AMD cpu.

u160 = ultra 160 SCSI

thats impossible. DDR is physically and electrically different from regular SDR RAM if i'm not mistaken

The ali boards can have both sdram slots and ddr slots. I think the asus one that will be coming out has two ddr slots and 3 sdram slots.
