MSI K9A2 Platinum bundle, presentation and warranty
More stickers than you can shake a stick at! We wonder what the FSB1333 is reference to, though - after all, AMD's Athlon CPUs don't feature a traditional front-side bus.

MSI PasswordKeeper, MSI SecureDoc, and MSI Lockbox Drivers for Windows Vista, identical to XP's save for no MSI Security Suite 1x 80-conductor flat IDE cable and 1x 34-conductor flat FDD cable (red, MSI-branded), 4x non-latching-style SATA data cables, 2x Molex-SATA power adapter cables - single-ended ATX I/O shield FireWire expansion bracket with one six-pin 1394a port.

The bundle - software, cables and documentation - is good but we'd have liked to have seen a couple of right-angled SATA cables included in the box.
Warranty
MSI provides a two-year warranty on its motherboards that begins on the date of the customer's invoice. The warranty is transferable, should the board be sold on, and it's up to the reseller to ensure a speedy turnaround.
MSI also states that support can be provided directly should the supplier cease trading.
We've reiterated this ad nauseam but please buy from a reseller that you trust - the quality and worth of the warranty are inextricably linked to the retailer. trust.HEXUS.net is the place for you to get a feel for how others have rated their buying experience of UK retailers.
