Mini PC (HTPC) to replace desktop

[pewekodok]

in taobao.com, some sellers offer MacMini case and quite cheap I thought

then searching for suitable mainboard, and thinking unused short pin ddr2 memory and 2.5" disk drive back home

some giada product (giadatech.com) offer main board with dimension 170x170mm which suitable for MacMini case. the back panel is low profile also.
there is no PS/2 socket

are there any other suitable mainboard for MacMini case?

the goal is not multimedia PC but dekstop replacement

if you thinking about something that small to build yourself might be an easier option then trying to source parts for that macmini case

I really like the new NUC units. In the US they are being offered at Newegg.com for a nice price http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856102001
