I have started a Defective By Design consumer action list of bad motherboards that display similar problems to this.

I will keep it updated based on reader input, so that less users will tend to buy things like this in the future.

Unfortunately, until Foxconn releases their "patch", there isn't a lot I can do, or the kernel guys for that matter, so if you want to leave me feedback on my blog, then please feel free.
