I just bought an Aria and I'm going to use it as an htpc probably with all my old parts in it. After signing up for the credit card on Amazon the case was $65 shipped, if anyone's interested.

Anyway, I need a socket A microATX motherboard and I wanted to spend about $30. I was looking at this one. Anyone have any suggestions for a better and/or cheaper board?

Also, if anyone knows where I can get a wireless G pci card for cheap (like $10), that would be appreciated, too. Thanks.
 
That is an excellent board. I am using it in my main rig now. Only complaint I have is the placement of the power connector.

I got rid of the NB fan also, and went with the Zalman fanless NB cooler.

The cheapest I have seen the PCI cards is 20-25.

Newegg, with placeable antenna
 
yeah thats what im using in my frag box and i like it so much that i got another for my carpc. is cheap and very good for my 3200+ xp and going to use a 2500+ over clock it to 3200+ seems not to be much a problem with the board.
the power connector is in the wrong place, but mines came with a fan less set up. i highly recommmend it.
