NOT writing this b/c mary's offer is bad - at all - but in the past month I've found RE-PC in the Seattle/Tukwila area... they sell all sorts of vintage electronics; tested/working vintage boards are $60-100 and I saw everything from Pentium4 to 286 boards; but you can grab untested ones for $5-20!!!

Such an awesome place, just in case anyone is in the pacific northwest U.S... 

There was a tested/working 486DX/100 for $100 that I almost wanted to pop on. :P
