Since it doesn't look like I'll be able to flash an M1015 in an E-350-based board (I've seen 2-3 different boards that failed, and no success stories), I don't have any other use to build it until at least middle of next year.
With that said, I could definitely find some room to have a spare desktop in the house if I can toss one together cheaply enough. What motherboards have you guys used to successfully flash an M1015?
I don't care if it is AMD/Intel as I'll be needing to buy a CPU as well. Doesn't need to be anything power-efficient or fast.. I'd prefer if it can use DDR3 as I've got some of that laying around whereas I don't have any DDR2.
I guess that means I'd be looking for a later LGA775/AM2+ board or newer. An mATX Z68 board would be stellar as I could upgrade my HTPC to Z68, OEM SB Cellies are cheap, and I've got a couple stock LGA1155 coolers laying around.
Newer Xeon setups are out of the question as it'd likely be over my budget.
