Wrong. The great question is, will it fit? Many OEMs feel at liberty to do their own take on the ATX "standard," so there's a good (er, bad) chance that a standard Micro-ATX board from Newegg just won't fit in this proprietary system.

Not what I meant. The PSU is not a standard one. The pinout is close, but not full ATC spec. The I/O shield looks like it's not going anywhere, but that might just be my observation from not having gutted it entirely. Also, this motherboard uses RDRAM which I was hoping to canibalize. Also, I'd be concerned by some rogue capacitor or connector being ion the way of other parts, as this thing is packed tight.

It's definitely a ppssibility, but it migth prove to be more than just a $30 motherbvaord.
