I needed a low wattage board to power my Skype phone, run video conferences, and surf the web. This board handle the load at 26-31 watts [complete with drive]. Speedy ... no. Does the job ... definitely.

Bought this board to build a small size PC to use while on vacation in my travel trailer or truck.
The good points..
Extremely small
Very low power usage, I used a Mini ITX case that accepted full size 5 1/4 DVD burner and used a 250 gig 3.5 inch HD. System idle power draw was a mere 36W! If low power usage is what you are looking for this is the board to use.
Low power usage also is nice for lack of heat, this thing runs COOL, even the processor heatsink doesn't get very hot. The power supply in the case I purchased actually gave off more heat than the processor.
No processor fan is needed as long as the case has proper ventilation.
Dual core with Hyper Threading is plenty fast for most any thing I threw at it (except for HD video but that is not the fault of the processor or board, see my comments in the CONs part of my review)
XP works great with it and sees the two hyper threaded processors (it shows as 4 processors in the task manager.
Can access 4 gig of RAM (I ony installed 2 gig for my setup)
Has Legacy PS/2 keyboard, mouse, LPT, RS-232 ports.
CONs..
Since Intel was trying to keep the power usage down they did not use a very robust video card (it is built into the processor/chipset under the heatsink). This leads to the complaint that this board can not play HD video. It is not the fault of the processor and installing a decent video card into the PCI slot most likely will fix this issue. Playing HD video the Task Manager reported only 40% of the processor being used which means it can play the video but only if you have a better video card.
PCI only expansion slot, while PCI is a good type of slot the problem is that it is being phased out. I would have expexted a PCI Express instead.
Only 2 SATA ports and they are not Raid capable, this really should be 4 SATA ports at the least.
LPT, RS-232 ports are on headers on the system board and Inel does not include the connectors to bring it out to the world. If you want these features you will need to wire your own. Inel should have included the connectors with the system board (other manufacturers either include as part of the package or sell them seperate).
Ohter comments..
Over all, it is a good buy for a small dual core PC, I would consider buying another.

I used this board with FreeNAS as storage for my various photos and audio files. It works great and FreeNAS allows you to spin the disks down when not in use. Overall I can keep a server online with 3TB of space for less than 20watts of standby power. Since I only use it about and hour each day it is a very green way to go. I only wish Intel thought to add a couple of additional SATA ports so this would be capable of supporting a better RAID type of back up. I also experimented with this board as a simple workstation (again low power) and for internet browsing and emai, it's more than enough. It's not a game machine or an HD movie watcher, but dragging down news videos off CNN and non-HD on YouTube it's just great. It has a spot for an onboard WIFI card if you want to go wireless.

This was the second mini-ITX board I've purchased and I must say that it's wonderful. I decided to go the Ubuntu route (USB Boot) and everything worked right out of the box. No setup was required for the audio, video or ethernet pieces. The board is very quiet, but that's probably because it doesn't have a fan built-in. Remember that when purchasing a board like this you have to purchase RAM and a power supply separately. Ah, and don't forget the SATA drive. I would absolutely recommend it for anyone who wants to get something setup and up and running quickly.
I'm mainly using it for simple productivity and internet surfing.
What I'm Using:
- Ubuntu 9.10 (Netbook Remix)
- 1x DDR2-800mhz Kingston RAM
- 1x PicoPSU micro power supply (90W)
- 1x Seagate 80GB notebook SATA drive

Great little motherboard. I put it in a Apex case with 1tb hd, 4gb ram, and dvd/cdrom drive. I'm running Centos 5.4 64-bit and plan to use it as my server in my home office. It's very low power and totally silent. The only negative I have is that it would not boot from a cd-rom attached to a usb port. I had to buy a SATA cd-rom and boot Centos from that.
