I was confused at the line break, I didn't see that that was the price of the Mobo and thought '10/100 Ethernet LAN support' was a separate item. Also, if you're planning to recycle the PC-100 DIMMs from your Presario and use them with the PC3200 DDR in your new box, you will need to rethink this plan.
Also, what the hell am I doing answering PC-tech questions? Buy a Mac. You'll be happier and girls will think you are sexy.

Unless, of course, they already know how shitty Macs are.

Yeah, the RAM issue has been mentioned to me already. Oh well. 256 MB should be fine to start out with. And this is a budget computer, which means definately no Macs.
