I continue to encounter limitations regarding the ATX and mini form factors available today.
The biggest being the width of the ATX, microATX and DTX motherboards (243 mm width) ability to fit in smaller cases
The "mini" sized motherboards (170 mm width) are a great option for these smaller cases but the expansion slot limitations with ITX and DTX form factors are a nonstarter
I'd like to know the community interest in getting a mini (170mm width) motherboard with the same expansion slot options of the microATX motherboard (243 mm)?
These size motherboards could be "drop-in" options within cases designed for micro ATX, but with more room due to the decreased width of the board.
The board would be 244mm x 170mm in size ... I'd call it mini-ATX to keep with the other naming convention of the mini sized board (i.e. 170mm).
