I am as yet undecided as to whether I shall try to buy a used PIII-capable motherboard that takes PC-133 ECC memory and has an ISA slot for my beloved old USRobotics modem, whether I shall buy a new motherboard and CPU and memory and modem. The computer was quite fast enough for my needs as it was, so I have no real desire to upgrade, but buying a used motherboard on short notice is a pain.
Suggestions for what's the current hot item in low-power low-noise relatively-inexpensive reliable motherboard/CPU combos would be much appreciated. I use this for typing and for having zillions of browser windows open, not for games.
