Pretty interesting. The supported processors (AMD Athlon XP up to 2600 or 3000+) are a lot buffer than what I have now.
It only has two memory slots (supports up a 1GB in each) and two PCI slots, which is typical for a micro board.
Built-in LAN, sound, and video. A CDROM is included.
All in all, you get more than what you pay for.

True, $19 not bad for the mobo/case/power.GORDON wrote:I've no idea. At $19, I figgered maybe it was worth it to someone to experiment. Even if just the keyboard and mouse work, then it's a good deal.
By the way, tigerdirect.com has a reputable... ummm... reputation.
But until they come out with a matching $19 cpu/memory combo...
It's not me, it's someone else.
If I had to get a micro board, I prefer the larger case. Full sized cases have better airflow, more room to add devices, and a more options if you want to upgrade the mobo.
My friend has a micro case, and the CDROM he got with it was too long. If he tries to slide it in all the way it hits the power supply. So the CDROM hangs out of the front of the case some.
