Pros: Decent board with good features. Nice layout. Would recommend for a basic Windows XP install with some reservations.

Cons: The gigabit network is not supported by default installs of Linux and will require some searching to get drivers working. APIC support in Linux is no good, and theres no way in the BIOS to disable APIC (shows, but cant change.) No Linux drivers on the supplied disc. Would not recommend for Linux use. Also, the back plate to cover the ports is extremely poor in tolerances and didn't fit in any of the three cases I tried it in without a huge fight. I ended up with a doctor visit to get my finger "glued" because it sliced me so bad trying to get it into the case.

Other Thoughts: I have two of these boards and they are working fine, but will probably not buy another.
