Hello all, I ordered one of these in the 3 slot variety. Works with an E-ATX case with a bit of work. http://www.douglas.com/index.php/fc-6-de-63.html Is there someone still working on these? Since there are some nice cheap compact MATX cases with some 90° rotated extra slots and AT IO Shield it …

I've asked in another thread but I hope to find more users who already made some experience: since the micro ATX standard is 244mm x 244mm would (for example) the PcChips M326 with 220mm height x 170mm fit in an mAtx case (or even some ITX cases) if a custom IO shield is made for the AT Keyboard …

I have another question: since the micro ATX standard is 244mm x 244mm would the M326 with 220mm height x 170mm fit in an mAtx case if a custom IO shield is made for the AT Keyboard connector ? Maybe some new screw holes are necessary to align the board on the top left of the case. And if that's the …
