I took that as him asking if he could swap a motherboard with the N-Force
chipset (by nVidia) into an existing PC.

That depends on the CPU/Memory you have. The chipset only does DDR ram
(AFAIK), so that could be a problem. Any Socket A CPU
(Athlon/AthlonXP/Duron) would work (again AFAIK).

Zero.  Its a PC architecture, but its *not* compatible AFAIK.  The closest
thing to it would be the NVidia NForce-chipset based boards.
