    good deal?

    Thought this might be a good deal if anyone (like myself) is looking for a mobo, includes 512m ram and 1.2g p3 for $129 + $15 shipping.

    Thoughts? Comments?
    I was thinking of getting 1 but was really wanting an m10000 or something like it.

    for the size, and for the pricessor+ memory combo it's an awesome deal...

    FYI: the m10000 is an aprox P3 700MHz processor... and you get the mobo for only the price of this setup... sopmething to consider... if i'd be making another carpc now, i'd be buying this...

    It's fast enough for the car use... Damn all these choices when you don't have money... CRAP! But it's def an awesome deal... you should post it in the FS thread

    Careful decription in title says Mini-ITX but after scanning the description it lists a "Board Size - Mini Flex ATX Form Factor ".

    Actually this board is Mini-ITX. 17cm x 17cm. http://freetech.com They have some pretty nice boards. I am going to look into the P8F154P board. It is Mini Flex ATX at 22cm x 19cm. Not much bigger than Mini ATX but I gain a PCI slot.
