A better deal is the "ECS A740GM-M v1.0A AM2+ AMD 740G Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail" for $53 shipped before a $15 mail-in rebate. Final price is $38 after rebate, or a mere $2 more than Ben's deal.

$2 buys you a newer chipset, lower power consumption, more powerful on-board video (capable of assisting in HD playback), and 6 SATA ports instead of 4. You do lose the floppy drive connector, though.
