Oh, sorry, should i have mentioned i do that most of the time? ;-)

Sometimes the circuit is really too complex, and you need more space.
Or you want a "big" machine with small panel area.
(example: tek 7000 scopes... look at the mechanical challenges they solved!
NOBODY could afford that sort of thing today. These guys did some amazing
work.)
where were we? the space...
if you haven't got enough space you can simply place a straight  
header/socket
connector on the PCB and "sandwich" a second board behind he first.
Very rigid still very slim.
