SPCR review of the board

This is a great deal! Too bad a CPU is still going to run you another $200 at least unless you go Celery. While this was probably some liquidation, I hope it is a sign of things to come. Hopefully Intel's Little Valley boards will increase the Mini-ITX installation base, and with more quantities we might see cheaper and cheaper Mini-ITX boards from the competitors.

Well if you don't mind buying used you can get Core Duo and Core 2 Duo mobiles on eBay pretty cheap. Especially the older Core Duos can probably be had for $50-100.

But yeah buying new it's probably kind of tough to find good deals on the mobile CPUs.

I've picked up two T2300 CPUs on eBay for less than $50 in the past few months. This is a good deal.

Hey, slightly off the original topic, but more on the Yonah CPU subject from the previous post. A quick cruise on ebay found the T2300 for $59.99 new. That seems really low, as compared to what others are selling system pulls for. ($50 ish used) The shipper is based in Hong Kong - does anyone know the story on this, OEM, etc? Not suggesting anything negative about the seller, just wondering why the low price.

cheers,
David

Seems like the market is all cleared out of this MB now..

I was 15 minutes late for the last listed card on ebay.
Can't find it in any other online stores either

Anyone know where to get it I'd greatly appreciate a heads up

Cheers!
