If you are considering building a Nascar system on a budget, this
motherboard may be what the pit crew ordered at $75.

That is a sweet board but if I make the investment, I'm going for
green specs. The emwin stuff does not need a fast system. An ITX 1g or
even 800mhz board can handle it just fine. I'd be looking more towards
saving power which equals directly to saving electricity and lower
electric bills. I'm already thinking 12v based system, laptop hard
drives(yes still looking at least a mirrored setup for reliability) and
size really does not matter. Saving power means saving $$$'s. My $$$'s
don't stretch anymore. Either a get a second job or get more creative at
saving money and do kewl computing things.
Heck I've even considered using a laptop but just don't feel one can
go 24x7x365.
