New guy here!

Alright so I was thinking about picking up this little sucker for Christmas:
http://shop.dmp.com.tw/INT/products/28

A freaking single board x86 based 300 mhz project board with...

ISA SLOTS???
AND A GPU???
Edit: well you can buy a mini plug and play gpu for it though
I am genuinely excited about this find, however if I purchased a SB 16 or an awe64 clone off ebay or somewheres would it be as simple as plugging it in and installing dos drivers?

Where are you seeing that it can be hooked up to ISA slots? I'm not seeing anything in the diagrams that indicates that. It does list xISA in the specs.

The Vortex86 does support ISA, but the board you are linking to doesn't look like there is a way to hook it up.

There are SBCs that use Vortex86. You can get up to 800Mhz from what I am seeing.

Here is a PC104 board that you could hook up ISA slots to... though no PCI so you would be severely limited as far as video card speed goes though the onboard vga is almost for sure PCI.

I would love to find a fast vortex86 eval board with PCI and ISA.

Here is an 800Mhz PC104+ board that has PCI and ISA support though I can't find it for sale anywhere:
