MicroATX motherboards are what by what?

[XMan]

I have a small motherboard I'd like to use for a word processing machine. It's square, roughly, and measures about nine inches by nine inches. It has four slots . . . is it MicroATX, or Flex ATX?

Sounds like an M-ATX, I believe the spec dictates 9.6" by 9.6" or something like that.

Cool. I think I figured out what board it is, and it is MicroATX.

Now I just need to find a small, inexpensive case . . . any suggestions? I'm looking at this right now: http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811130108

Cool, but not really inexpensive. I'm even kind of annoyed at the $79 price tag of the one I linked to . . .

Athenatech A100-SC - http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811190003 - the ones I've seen have a 230W PSU in them, not 200. If you really need to cut the cost, there is a similar Powmax case for about $30., but I don't trust Powmax PSUs as far as I can throw them.
. I wouldn't use a low case like the AOpen, if you need to add an expansion card you have to use low-profile cards in that case. Does your mobo have the P4 power connector (4-pin square)? Pretty much a must have to work well with the puny PSUs that normally comes in these compact cases.

I don't plan on having any expansion cards; it's going to be a writing machine for up in my attic . . . I don't want any bells and whistles from . . . distracting me. 😀 I may not even put solitaire on it, hehe.
