I don't generally use this list for advertising, but I figured a few
people
here might appreciate knowing about this...



I can get hold of new (clearance stock) DFI AM33-EC M/ATX PLE133
motherboards
to sell for $45 +GST each.

D=1281


While they aren't the latest/greatest they are pretty standard micro-ATX
boards
for socket-A cpus (AMD Duron/Athlon) with a Via chipset, use SDRAM
memory &
on-board sound/video which are well supported by most current Linuxes.


A 1.2Ghz Duron cpu & 256Mb of memory costs about $170 +GST, so if you
have an
old ATX system, this could provide a pretty cost effective upgrade.


Let me know if you are interested (also if anyone believes this is an
inappropriate place to post such info, let me know)



Spotcha,


Brent Wood
