Naw, that isn't the funniest motherboard...

Man, I was laughing at Intel for a bit then... This is just weird. InThane - Now running Ashton rev 2.0

I think it was from AOpen. InThane - Now running Ashton rev 2.0

Hmm ... so who wants to do MotherboardMadness on TWikiWeThey? :-) On and on and on and on, and on and on and on goes John.

AMD's still trying to top it - there's an upcoming Hammer board that had Tom's Hardware Guide hammer silkscreened on to it, but that doesn't even come close to the musical tune. :P InThane - Now running Ashton rev 2.0
