This nanoITX mobo seems to be appropriate for a lot of embedded uses, however it's not clear how well it'd handle an OS like Windows 7.
Moreover, there are Atom COMs (computer on module) which

There seems to be some issue with VIA's motherboards: they're more expensive than anything similar from Intel. Even the regular mini-ITX motherboards are more expensive than the Atom motherboards.
Perhaps VIA should update their prices to reflect the current market's prices?
