As their older Extreme 4's had much better placement ( right angle ) even the Z68 had better placement and to me this is just cheap. Maybe it allows it fir in more cases having them like this but one thing for sure i wont by a mobo like this.

Most of the ports are at a right angle, on the edge of the board where they should be, it is just the two at the bottom that aren't. I don't see the big deal. 90% of people won't even use those two.
