Hi all. I just got my Asus A7n8x-x board today, and I am reminded once 
again that it is next to impossible to figure out the layout of the 
board. Like I know I am supposed to be looking for 6 expansion slots (5 
PCI and 1 AGP), and I think I found them but not positive of that. I 
also think I found the ziff socket and the DIMM slots, but not sure of 
that either. So now I'm trying to come up with ideas on how to make 
building a box more accessible to the visually impaired. One idea I came 
up with is to add/rephrase it in the manual so that you are able to 
relate the location of for example, IDE connectors to where your hand 
(s) are positioned on the motherboard. Much like documentation for 
adaptive equipment. I'm not sure it would be possible to stick little 
labels next to/on jumper connectors for example, because I'm thinking 
they may melt because of changing temperatures inside the machine/during 
the shipping process. Anyone have any other ideas? I am actually 
thinking of incorporating any ideas people may have here with ones of my 
own and writing to Asus with my suggestions.
