    SCSI is too expensive to be widespread as yet.

    EDIT: And what is wrong with a controller card?

    They sure have thought about the layout. Nice way to mount the IDE & floppy ports so your cables are out of the way, wider tracks to dissipate heat & a fan that moves air across the board which should help as well.
    I'm not too sure about 7.1 sound, though; what are we heading toward with it, a cinema in your front room? A gimmick, I'd say. If they carry on in this vein we'll be buying speaker banks that stretch along the wall.

    SCSI? I doubt it's ever gonna be popular enough in-home to warrant implementation in lower & mid range boards due to SATA.

    The girl on the left doesn't look too bad to me B) . Perhaps my sights are set a little lower than you youngsters' but they're almost definitely more realistic - I wouldn't have a chance with either!

    how come on the first board, it appears that theyve only put ONE ide port on the, yet they put a floppy ide port on it

    my thinking for a few seconds was maybe because of sata their idea is to only have one ide port for the cd drive, and have sata for hard drives. BUT WHY A FLOPPY DRIVE!
