Hi GC, RE: Motherboard with on-board SCSI. Well, I personally have an AOpen AX6B+ in one of my boxes. It's got a 440BX chipset which will run on a 100Mhz FSB allowing 350Mhz+ PII CPU's to function correctly. A BIOS upgrade will allow a P-III 500 to run on it. It has 3 ISA, 4 PCI, and one AGP slot. Great motherboard...I highly recommend it. Take a look for yourself: aopenusa.com It's not too expensive either. ASUS also has one (as well as about 10 other motherboard manufactures, but they're way over-rated and overpriced..IMHO). "for the 500 chip they want $1335.00 motherboard $480.00 with only 3-PCI slots memory 128 sdram $365.00 new case $125.00-baby tower for a baby motherboard I told the guy. " Holy cow, what currency is that in? Even in Canadian dollars that's way too much. Especially for the RAM and the case. A full-tower would cost you that much CAD, a mini-tower would be more than half of that. I also suggest picking up an AGP video card to take advantage of the slot and free up another PCI slot. I hope this helps, and let me know where you are before you purchase anything that expensive. Regards, Richard
