need to buy slot 1 mobo

i have a p3 450 [katmai] and a p3 600 [coppermine]. i am having a difficult time finding a slot 1 mobo to buy online. can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks.
 
I'm still running my p3b-f, great board.
if you're thinking of using a slot 1 coppermine with it , check that it's revision 1.03 or later.
 
If I were you, I'd just buy a decent Intel815 Tualatin compatable mobo and new processor - you'd get a major speed boost and the new mobo would be better.

I suggest an Abit ST6 socket 370 mobo and a Celeron Tualatin 1.0A CPU (which is equivelent to a Pentium III 1 ghz cpu on a 100 mhz FSB). That mobo can be had for about $85 (search Pricewatch) and that CPU for $63 at Newegg. So for $150 you can have a very nice upgrade.
 
thanks everyone for the suggestions. i don't exactly want to get rid of my processors. i currently own a P4 1.6a with an Asus P4TE mobo. those processors are still good and i want to use them in a gaming server or something useful like that. asusm, i may take you up on buying your p3v4x.
