Seconded (I sure have been whoring this board out a lot lately :eek:), but remember that the board does not have onboard firewire. A cheap PCI add-in card will remedy this.

another vote for ASrock, its getting great reviews all over. This thing is loaded, cheap, and is likely to become an enthusiast favorite (custom bioses may follow)
