Yesterday we gave away our second SSD of the contest. The winner? Bob-o. Congrats! Respond to my email with your shipping info and we'll get your prize out right away.

I started out reviewing motherboards. Back in 1997 there were dozens of motherboard manufacturers and they were all very eager to have their products reviewed. In some senses the industry was a lot cleaner back then. The focus of motherboard PR hadn't yet shifted to winning awards above all else. Before I handed off motherboard reviews to Mike Andrawes, our first Senior Editor, I reviewed 209 motherboards for AnandTech.

Today's prize is made by a company that wasn't even around back then. ASRock. Originally an ASUS subsidiary, ASRock is now completely independent. The company was kind enough to ship us its H55M Pro. You can find full specs of the LGA-1156 motherboard here on ASRock's site.
