Im gutting my old gamecube and converting it into a pc, so I need a motherboard smaller than 15x15 cm, it has to be relatively cheap (ideally under £50, about $90ish) and I dont really care about power (just want to get the pc to run on linux)

If anyone could help I would do a dance of joy

thanks

chris

That's a full-sized ATX mobo, not even a micro-ATX. He needs something much smaller.

Why is that idiotic? A lot of people find that stuff pretty cool. I would love one of these NES PC's:

I'd start looking around for console customization websites for ideas. You're looking for a pretty unique item, and it's unlikely someone here will know of such a thing off the top of their head.
