it also has a single pci slot, so you can install, let's say, a wireless network internal card or a tv tuner.
from Raz1r, www.newegg.com
it blows away via boards in the same price range (this is before the nano mind you.) and if it is coupled with the right pci card and 2gb ram can be used for any single use outside of gaming or music

plenty of room for gigantic video cards on this one (gtx260 covered up sata ports on smaller board), 12 usb ports, good audio, and the external powered esata is a great touch.
