Got my Pro-2a yesterday (11-29). They shipped it real quick (ordered on 11-27 afternoon). The Mobo looks very nice. Not yet have time to test, but a causal check reveals that the much hated voice feature has already gone (I might be wrong, but I couldn't find the language jumper, and an add-in page to the manual changes that feature as "optional". A minor but a welcome improvement.
BTW, read somewhere the on-board audio may not work. Any experiences and solutions? Thanks.
