The one issue I would have with the above board in a FE/BE role or in
a BE role is the lack of expansion slots, an issue shared by ALL
microATX motherboards. I want to be able to stuff tuners into
motherboards, but that may be just me.

If your looking at the above in a pure FE role, it looks like it would
be just fine.

The one microATX motherboard I have had experience with and would NOT
recommend is the ASUS M2N-MX SE PLUS which was shipped with an invalid
MAC address (a problem when one plan to use the machine for net
booting).
