I'll tell you something that *I* noticed...

I had a look on ebuyer, and almost *all* the motherboards had *exactly* 
the same feature set until you start getting pretty expensive. I mean, 

PCI slots, same number of SATA slots, etc. [Many of them lack IDE 
entirely, which is potentially problematic...]

It's as if they all use the same chipset or something...

Once you get into the "really" expensive ones, a much wider variation is 
apparent. Convergent evolution?
