The Fry's located about 3 blocks from this little event still sells the ECS boards that take PC133. They've all been bought and returned about 100 times, but they're like $50 and almost guaranteed to be missing something that would give you a legitimate gripe to return it too if you want.

a little steep for our budget, but we'll definitely have to check that one out.

ummm, are you not reading your pm's or something?
50 bucks is tight on our budget right now. I just found an older KT266a mb that we can use so it looks ok for now. :)

ok, so far we have about 12 people that are actually confirmed to attend. we need more people! ask your friends, family, priest, whatever, invite anyone you think would be remotely interested! the more people, the better the experience.

Everything went flawlessly (as far as the servers go.) The only complaint i have is that i had to carry two monitors, three computers (two in that standard big-ass antec case and one in a monster full atx tower,) a kvm, two keyboards, two mice, a SHITLOAD of network cables, three switches, and about another half metric ton of gear. We really need to get a mobile half-rack and some rackmount equipment!

well, why didn't you ask for that then? My half-rack is 90% complete. If I can pay off my CC bill by the next party we can use it. I also have 1 2U case so far.
