What's the most decked out motherboard you know of?

It used to be that motherboards had the CPU socket, memory slots, and room for 5 or 6 expansion cards. Then slowly they began to integrate more and more features onto the motherboard. One of the primary reasons I bought my Soyo K7V Dragon+ was that at the time it seemed like a big leap in feature integration. This thing seemed like it had EVERYTHING! Granted I ended up waisting many of the features. I don't use on board raid despite having 300+ Gigs of HD space on 3 drives and I use a Sound blaster Audigy instead of the on board audio. So this is a good argument for not buying such a motherboard I guess Anyway I still drool over feature packed motherboards, of course they have to be stable too. Recently though the industry seems to have hit another point of stagnation. While mobos now have a lot of features integrated into them they all seem to have the same features, sound, dual Ethernet, raid etc... I want to know has anyone seem any true innovation in this area recently??

Yes the LanParty mobos do pique my interest but even they usually offer the same basic integrated components. They just package a lot more "neat toys" with it. I guess there isn't much left that can be integrated that would be cost effective for motherboard manufacturers. Though it would be nice to see more versions of mobos with integrated wifi.
