      Thanks for the help with the case.  The Casetronic you've linked is pretty much the perfect fit for this board in terms of scalability and cost.  If only it were rackmount…nothing the mod squad can't fix.  ;D

        This hardware looks interesting for my first pfsense box (I've been using m0n0wall so far). I'd like to put a slimline DVD reader in it and run pfsense live with settings on a CF card. The reason for running live is to reduce sound from a hard disk, but I guess I could use an SSD drive for that.

        A question regarding that Travla case:
        It seems no CF card reader is included with the case, what kind of reader would you recommend together with this motherboard?

        By the way, running pfsense live - is it a good idea?

            Just as a heads up Logic Supply FINALLY has these boards back in stock (I just ordered 2 more) for those in the US:

            http://www.logicsupply.com/products/ms_9830

            I snagged a couple of those with 2gb RAM and this case: http://www.logicsupply.com/products/m360 for ~$270 shipped each.

            They also have a dual core atom board from MSI that uses the Realtek RTL8111C Gigabit chipsets (Should be supported in 1.2.2 if i read right but don't hold me to it) if you'd rather:
            http://www.logicsupply.com/products/ms_9832

            I think the dual intel LAN cements this board as a great platform.. will do some power testing soon here and get that up as well..

              Anyone have any kind of CPU Temp monitoring available for this board?? I'm on 1.2.3 and saw this: http://wiki.freebsd.org/AsusEee didn't know if waaay down at the bottom the temp utility could work with any ATOM proc or if it was chipset based…  It's the only thing I really wish I could get with this..
