    I plan on modding my desk to include built in power and ethernet jacks and cover the whole thing in circuit boards. Power and ethernet are no problem but finding dead mobos has actually been a little more difficult than I expected. If anyone knows of a place that sells them in quantity or possibly some place to get quantites for free :D would be great. I'm state side in the Memphis, TN area thanks all. I will be sure to post pictures once I have enough mobos to start. I was inspired to use mobos after seeing a really interesting case mod over at mini-itx, I think it's been posted here as well but here is the link for those that missed it.

    I have several dead mobo's... last count was 7 of them. I'd be willing to part with them. I had them around for spare parts, but haven't taken anything off of them. Some are 233's, some newer.
