Remember I said PC case. The cases are cheap, buying a case with power
supply for $25-45 is common.
The PC motherboards keep changing and have way more than we need. That "way
more" means more
things that can fail. Also, it would not be very open. Not many of us could
reproduce a mother board or modify it.
If you based a design on a PC motherboard last year you would have a hard
time finding where you could buy it.
I like the simple board approach, but just let it fit in a PC case and use
a PC power supply.
Well, I guess it's not quite full circle.
