I have it and I really like the updated bios. I haven't had any issues other than the pins for the power switch is in the middle of the board so that the two different cases I tried bearly fit and makes it so I can't use the botton two pci slots if I ever wanted to.

By the way there is an open box deal on it:

Have you guys install Windows 7 on this board yet? Do they include the drivers on the CD or do I have to download them from Asus website?

Lol, I just ordered this last night. Thank you for posting that review. I've been looking forever. While not much insight, if you come back to this thread tomorrow evening I will post results.
