Just thinking about setting up a home file server, that could possibly double as a Media Centre.
I'm starting to think it may not be worth the hassle, considering how expensive and difficult it is to find any of the MoBo's I would like...

I looked at the Zotac boards, but without a PCI slot, they seem a little crippled. They don't have enough SATA ports to be a good file server, and you can't add a tuner card so they dont make a good media centre...

Screw it, I c.b.f. trying to dual purpose the system => dedicated file server it is. Any suggestions on a MoBo better than the intel (mentioned in the first post)?
