I'm in the same boat with Newegg and Asus. I figure in the worst case I'll send it back to Newegg for a refund a few hours after I buy a replacement from the local Microcenter. Hopefully they will just send us new boards. However Intel is run buy a bunch of suits who probably won't mind screwing us over to save a few million on shipping, they certainly don't care about wasting our time replacing and shipping back their defective product.I bought at MC, so it gives me two options to consider. I'd prefer swapping at MC because if that board has problems I can exchange it easier (which is one reason I bought there in the first place). But, what if MC doesn't get inventory until late April, and Asus can do it early March? What if Asus offers a Z68 option, but MC just has the existing P67 chipset? Whatever, I'm registered at Asus and MC already emailed me about the recall. I'll just sit back and wait it out and do whatever is the best deal for me.
Though it is pretty damn funny they couldn't be bothered support SATA3 on all their ports and it kicked them in the ass, reminds me of the Pentium 4 days. I guess we should be happy the USB2 ports work.
