Walmart computer mobo Q (possible VIA EPIA?)...

Here's the news story about it: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tm...&e=1&u=/nm/20021208/tc_nm/column_pluggedin_dc

and the link to the machine itself:
http://www.walmart.com/catalog/prod...3&cat=3951&type=19&dept=3944&path=0:3944:3951

Now judging by the simensions and capabilty of the motherboard, could the mobo possibly be a Via EPIA (Mini-ITX board being used for all kinds of cool uses)? It has ONE PCI slot (like the Via EPIA) and the same specs of onboard components.

If so, this might be a GREAT deal for people who want another Internet PC, Divx/MP3/DVD box, HTPC.

EDIT: I'd like to know if someone could physically check to see if it has S-video/Composite video out. If it DOES, it's the Via EPIA.


What the board looks like:

Not sure, but I can say it is Cyrix (oops, C3 CPU )based system, which I believe is a via ipx board...confirmation anyone?
