Baby AT motherboard An ATX Form Card, used by later Baby-AT motherboards to allow for USB, PS/2 mouse, and IR connectivity through headers. In 1987, the Baby AT form factor was introduced, based on the motherboard found in the IBM PC/XT 286 (5162) [2] and soon after all computer makers abandoned AT for the cheaper and smaller Baby AT form factor, using it for computers that spanned several ...
The Cx486DRx2 appeared on the market in 1994, by which time the 486 was already being displaced by the Pentium. Sales were poor due to the high price and the underwhelming performance compared to a true Intel 486DX2. It was often cheaper to purchase a new 486 motherboard than to invest in an upgrade CPU. [5]

A motherboard (also called mainboard, main circuit board, MB, mobo, base board, system board, or, in Apple computers, logic board) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other expandable systems.
An ATX motherboard Comparison of some common motherboard form factors (pen for scale). ATX (Advanced Technology Extended) is a motherboard and power supply configuration specification, patented by David Dent in 1995 at Intel, [1] to improve on previous de facto standards like the AT design.
Texas A&M University School of Law is rising in the ranks, according to U.S. News & World Report. This was the most significant rise in ranking among top 50 schools in the U.S. since last year.
For example, the introduction of AGP and, more recently, PCI Express have influenced motherboard design. However, the standardized size and layout of motherboards have changed much more slowly and are controlled by their own standards. The list of components required on a motherboard changes far more slowly than the components themselves.
