Pico-ITX Motherboards
I never cease to be amazed at how small and powerful things are getting. I remember my first experience with the Apple II in the late 1970s. An amazing amount of computing power for it's day, yet now my Nokia phones have far more computing power than that Apple II could have ever dreamed of.

Continuing the long march to cheaper, smaller, faster, VIA now has their Pico-ITX motherboards. Smaller than a typical 3.5" hard drive, they sport a 1GHz NanoBGA2 processor, a DIMM socket that supports up to 1gb of memory, integrated VGA/DVI, USB, LAN, Audio, IDE and SATA. Quite a marvelous piece of engineering.

No cases for these motherboards just yet since they've only been recently announced. I have to believe cabling one of these badboys is going to be no easy task and will likely increase the size of any potential case. Check out evolution of VIA's Mainboards: you can see just how far we've come.
