on Commell's
LV-677, a Mini ITX board equipped with a Core Duo-compatible 479-pin socket,
two DDR2 DIMM slots, and most importantly, a PCI Express x16 slot. The board is
also equipped with integrated graphics courtesy of Intel's 945GM north bridge,
Gigabit Ethernet, Firewire, and 5.1-channel High Definition Audio. Of course,
the LV-677's unique attributes don't come cheap - retailers in Japan are selling
the board for close to $450!
