Building 1U Servers, MB suggestions?

[Norssak]

I'm planning to put together a few lowcost 1U rackmount servers out of off-the-shelf componets. Because of the extreme space constrains the 1U formfactor imposes, the motherboard choices are rather thin. I am looking for models that have the DIMM slots at a 25% angle. So far the only manufactures I've found to offer such Models are SuperMicro, Tyan, and Gigabyte. With the Cheapest being the SuperMicro 370SSE Link for around $260.-

Any alternatives you know of?
