Asus A8N VM and SATA?

does the Asus A8N VN (not the CSM version) support TV out and firewire? also how does it compare with the RS 482 . Also my dealer says the MSI RS 482 is about to be discontinued is this true?

Also is buying a SATA hard drive worth the extra 300 bucks?
thanks

I am using a SATA 160GB Samsung drive for the past 1year, actually my Intel 915GAV doesnot support PATA drives.

Regarding usage the bus speed is significantly more and it is future proof and certainly advisable over PATA. The extra bucks are well spend.
