I took the AOpen MB back today, but the only MB they had was an Asus P5A
with audio and which cost me an extra �19 as well as the petrol.  It
seems they keep little stock as I asked for 5 other items and they had
nothing there!

But, at least they swapped the MB over with no hassle even though it
cost me a bit extra C'est la vie.

So conclussion are they are OK - not great, but not bad either.
