stm32 discovery pinout FAIL

Just received my stm32 discovery and found out that I can't plug it to a protoboard because of 6 pins that are on the way.

Even tearing apart my protoboard it didn't work.

So I went to buy another board and try to hack it to make it work. Here's what I ended up with:

This model has the power lines separated from the othe connections, so I could adjust the spacing in order to work with the stm32 discovery board.

It's a shame that I payed 10 bucks for the discovery board and had to pay $15 for the protoboard  (in Brazil) so I could work with it. Couldn't the nice people at ST.com move that damn 6 pins to the sides? And make the borders less wide so we could use all the holes on the protoboard...
