When I buy generic motherboards, they usually come with cables as part
of the bundle. Also a driver CD and an I/O plate. Intel boxed
motherboards include nice stickers, too... Ben Myers

Ok then well now the £ is worth bugger all against the dollar, i can make
you all a little envious

I'm with Virgin Media in the UK and I'm on their XL cable Tv package about
150 channels, including Sky- never anything on though, XL telephone package
which gives me free UK calls to land lines and mobiles 24/7 and 20Mb
broadband for approx $50 per month

If you pay more it must be better. 8^)
