Pros: pretty sturdy, very thin. The VGA dongle is magnetically attracted to the compartment on the bottom of the netbook. very nice features. it uses the new n280 intel atom processor, with hyperthreading. wireless networking is very fast, with n wireless. camera is 1.3 mp. it has a digital array mic, but I have not tested it yet. Zoom is with two fingers. the trackpad has small bumps, so you know when u exit the trackpad area without looking.

Cons: the trackpad button was not good initially. It squeaked a lot. However, after using it for a few hours it has broken in and is now great. There is slight flex throughout the whole netbook, but that is expected since it is so thin. The screen could be a little higher res. no 2 finger scrolling, but you can scroll by moving your finger on the left and bottom borders. bad logo haha

Overall Review: definitely worth the price. I'm glad I got it. It will be useful at summer school and robotics team meetings.

Pros: Everything is compatible with VMware ESX 4i. The NICs and ICH10R are all detected by esxi, and work very well. No drivers had to be separately installed. The mobo itself is very high quality, with sufficient packaging. It supports UDIMM and RDIMM. However I could not test if the RDIMM work well, since when I put my 6 gb's in the board would not post. the UDIMM I bought to test with worked flawlessly, with an acceptable boot time.

Cons: The manual has some stuff wrong, such as the triple channel ram configuration. In version 1.0 of the manual, it says use 1A, 2A, 3A, but in version 1.0a, it says 1A, 1B, 1C. Version 1.0a is correct. The board does not post if 1A,2A, 3A is used. The motherboard is HUGE. It is longer than EATX, and I learned the hard way. I got another case, Cooler Master Cosmos (the largest case for nonserver use) and it did not have enough holes for the screws. I had to drill and tap some holes before I felt comfortable with it holding my CPU without bending the mobo. Also, there are some mobo components very close to the border of the CPU. I got the XIGMATEK Dark Knight-S1283V 120mm Long Life Bearing CPU Cooler and the brackets would not fit(it hit the mobo). I just cut off the little tabs in the center of the brackets, and turned them upside down, and mounted them on the heatsink. I used a dremel to shorten the springs. After this, the heatsink fit very securly and well.

Overall Review: You can not find any better mobo than this for ESXi. Everything is supported out of the box for ESXi 4, and is great as both a testing or production server. Some things were hard to overcome, such as the huge size and the lack of fittable heatsinks, but with a little mechanical skill, this is easily the most capable motherboard in the dual LGA1366 socket category.

Pros: great product

Cons: none
