Differences between the two are that the AV49P has:
400/533/800 mhz FSB (instead of 400/533)
VIA PT800+VT8237 chipset (instead of P4X400+VT8235)
2 DIMM slots (instead of 3)
AGP 2.0/3.0 (instead of 1.0/2.0)
4 PCI slots (instead of 5)
2 serial ATA ports (instead of 0)
8 USB ports (instead of 6)

So...is it a better motherboard? Thoughts?

certainly seems newer. might support prescott 478s?

I'd say so b/c it looks like it supports Prescott CPU's. Link

One bad point: "AV48PN has two DIMM sockets,
but when it comes to DDR400, then only one module is supported."

Hmm...I don't think it does support Prescott as this page says "Prescott/Celeron D processor are not supported."
http://global.shuttle.com/Support/SupportList.asp?Item=AV49P/N

Upon closer inspection, it's actually the AV49P/N board, as it does have a network connection.

I've been searching all over the Internet for a processor that will work on this board, but I'm still having trouble. It says no Prescott, no Celeron D's. And that's about all I'm finding in the under $100 range.

If anyone has a direct link to a sub-$100 processor at a store that you know would work with this board, I'd greatly appreciate it.
