sorry =), I forgot that they announced a board at Comdex. Here are the specs (notice the integrated TNT chipset - that's gonna hurt nVidia) I wonder how many of these boards were produced?

COMDEX UPDATE: STB Moves Into Motherboard Market

Video card manufacturer STB is gearing up to enter to enter the hot and heavy motherboard arena with its new
T-100MMR microATX form-factor motherboard.

Specs include:

Intel's 440BX core-logic AGPset (also 440ZX ready)
Integrated nVidia TNT 2D/3D accelerator armed with 8MB of SDRAM
Integrated Crystal CS4280/CS4297 PCI audio chip
Expansion slots include 1 AGP and 3 PCI slots
3 DIMM sockets support up to 512MB of system memory
66/100MHz system bus support
Support for Intel's Celeron, Pentium II, and Katmai processors
STB's proprietary MultiMedia Riser (MMR) for video card upgrades such as TV-out ports and TV-tuners

STB is aiming this motherboard at the sub-$1,000 system markets. As an OEM part, the T-100MMR will be available in Q1 of 199


hey, is it possible to have an integrated V3 (leaving the AGP slot open) and then pop in an AGP V3 and SLI them together? or does the AGP spec absolutely prevent that? just curious.
