Do u expect ATX to be on the way out in the future???

[Lombardaga]

Would this standard live really long do u think or...

At least as long as old Baby-AT. I guess that the next form factor will be something smaller (NOT Micro-ATX), as computers will have to get smaller..

There is already NLX and WTX but they are more like extensions of ATX.

most of the new standards are ATX compatible. AT lasted about 20 years, so i wouldn't worry. Flex ATX is basically microatx but with 3 slots as well. NLX is a passive backplane board which basically replaced the central riser card LPX design they used to use back in the AT days.
