Gigabyte Ships Two AM1 Based Motherboards at Around $50
Gigabyte has revealed two almost identical motherboards, though one is more focused on legacy support.
Gigabyte has revealed not one, but two socket AM1 motherboards, both which are remarkably similar to each other, and both narrow Micro-ATX boards.
The motherboards, known as the AM1M-S2H and the AM1M-S2P, both feature the AMD FM1 socket, which has support for AMD's A-Series APUs as well as E-Series APUs. They will also have support for some of the upcoming Athlon and Sempron CPUs.
Both of the motherboards have two DDR3 memory slots, a single PCIe 2.0 x16 slot, as well as two SATA ports. The AM1M-S2H has two PCIe 1x slots, while the AM1M-S2P has a single PCIe x1 slot along with a single legacy PCI slot.
Rear I/O connectivity is also different on both boards. Both feature a pair of PS/2 ports, a VGA port, two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, Gigabit Ethernet and stereo audio. The AM1M-S2H has a single HDMI port, while the AM1M-S2P carries an LPT parallel port as well as a serial port.
Availability is expected soon, with pricing expected to sit around the $50 mark.

I think you'd be guessing wrong
I suspect there are a great many highly functional dot-matrix printers out there that have been 'left behind' -- they're really handy for doing multi-part forms and 'tractor-fed' statements & bills. There is also specialized demand wide-column forms and data. With the advent of inkjet early models were LPT though models quickly developed with both parallel and USB.
Access to a COM port is handy, too --- I've got a digital scrolling LED sign that is programmed via a serial connection.
Thanks, Gigabyte! We look forward to ITX versions .... and Mullins and Beema support ???
