I'd be happy with a working m/b the same as this one which has been great
for 4 years or so and the spare now in service is still 'good enough'. I
wouldn't want to go back to a Via Epia sp13000 like I just found in the
junk box!!

As far as re-using parts goes, if DDR3 is what is current for this sort of
low end boxen then so be it - its not as if RAM is expensive!

There is no other cost really as I boot from the network and the SATA DVD
drive will work with anything (not that I even use that these days, all my
content is on the server!).

The only thing I haven't checked is the 12v picoPSU (but I have checked
the power brick).
