Description: This Via EPIA series of small (17cm x 17cm) form factor (Micro-ITX) motherboards includes an onboard Via C3-800MHz CPU heatsink and fan. All you need to add is a stick of PC133 RAM, a mass storage device and some power. You won't need a lot of power as the CPU only drwas about 5 Watts. A system with 256MB of RAM and a 40GB HDD will use around 45 watts peak power.

These boards make great hobby kits or thin clients (PXE bootROM is included with the 10/100 NIC). Their small size has users placing them in the most unusual custom cases and finding new places to use a PC.

Granted that an 800 MHz chip based loosely on the AMD-K6/2 is not going to run your next video editing sweatshop, but it's more than capable of doing everyday office tasks, browsing, etc.
