The mini-itx mobo in my fanless VIA EPIA 6000 flaked-out and I want to
replace it, ideally with something a bit faster, but recycling my DDR
RAM DIMM, case and other HW.  The two boards I can find that fit these
criteria are both 800MHz and about the same price:

VIA EPIA SP8000 $205

iGoLogic MBI3368G-iE Celeron $215

The iGo board has Gigabit ether which might be helpful as I'm running
this box diskless off my fileserver. 


Any opinions? Or should I punt and get some new mobo with new RAM
formfactor for better performance?  Other suggestions?

Thanks.
