And, I believe, in the Dell Dimensions, we have 4 of them, they use
Proprietary cases, motherboards and PSUs. After the quote of about
USD$238 for a new motherboard, I think I have lost a lot of enthusiasm
for Dell. I'm sure others (HP for example) would charge the same, for
Proprietary parts.

When I take this box (hopefully on 5 or 6 January) for the man who
repairs motherboards to inspect the motherboard and the PSU, I will
ask about the difference in price, for a g33 board and low end Core2
CPU. The Controller of the Currency in our house (my Wife) mentioned
to me that we are not in very good shape, after all of the extra Xmas
spending..... Your idea sounds excellent, if the $ is there....
