Some of their new boards don't seem that bad.

Regardless, most of their boards are cheap

Hey I said usually not always. But it's not in your sig rig.

Well, the way I see it, no enthusiast is going to buy an AsRock board for their main rig. Probably Asus, DFI, Gigabyte, etc...

People that are buying those boards are more likely to already know what their doing. A person buying an AsRock board is usually a first time builder or a budget builder that may not be as experienced and need to look for compatibility stickers.

That's just my theory.

Not always, I've had better luck with Asrock than I have with Asus...

Who knew

Oh noez i don't have the sticker. Will I be able to run W7? must get sticker.

Almost like putting "Vista ready" on a monitor.

It's not such a big deal compared to people who buy Intel EE procs but don't overclock them.

I disagree with your theory. The P45XE board may not be the best for overclocking, but it has excellent capabilities and for it's price, it's hardly a "budget" motherboard, its more of a "deal" on a motherboard.
