www.centrix-intl.com has two different PPro MBs - both are
single-processor boards:

	One is a standard MB that will take 32/36 bit FPM or EDO 72 pin
RAM

	the other is an LPX board, takes 32/36 bit FPM or EDO 72 pin
RAM

www.tigerdirect.com has a nice new LPX "moniputer" case for $99
with a 17" CRT that does either 1024x768 at 70 Hz or 1280x1024
at 66 Hz (two different models). The MB slides into an
integrated case, and has a 5 1/4" and 3 1/2" cutout (CD &
Floppy), and speakers. Think iMac, but angular.

HTH,

Ken

ASUS has a MB that uses a daughter board for the CPU's,
generally these use
normal ram.
