(Cheapest Socket 7 board I saw was $10 but it was a crap OEM board that didn't have any ISA slots and needed a riser card for PCI, and that just won't work. Most seem to be around $30+shipping. If I can't source one of those, my other choice is a 486 board but then we get into trouble since I'd have to pick up all new parts for it, like RAM, processor, etc.)
Unless someone has a board similar to this one (that is, Socket 7, ATX, with 3 ISA slots) that they'd offer me at a reasonable price. Or at least if I could be pointed towards something good.
Jorpho has a sale going on this forum including a SS7 board that almost matches your specs. He lives in NA also so shipping should be cheap.
Hardware Crap I want to get rid of
Dunno if he binned it already so better be quick.
Even if it's not what you want (because it has only 2 ISA slots instead of 3) it's a great board as it's SS7 and thus very flexible 😉
The board is the AX59 PRO
