This is a mini-ITX motherboard that takes Intel G2 socket mobile CPUs. Unlike the AIMB-272 that had a big thread here a few years ago that only took Sandy bridge, this one can take Ivy Bridge. I just got my shipment and it indeed seem brand new with heatsink and I/O shield. For $40 it's a pretty good deal IMO, especially when you can pair it with a cheap $20 i5. May be a good alternative to the DFI box.
