Kevin,
I think I might be able to help you. I have a call into my
distributor to see if they have any of these left in their warehouse. If
not, you should check out InBus Engineering. The link to the B440FX page is
http://www.inbus.com/products/servers/b440fx.htm. The B440FX is the
baseboard from the BB440FX server-- but BB440FX and MB440LX share the same
chassis.
Intel makes some really nice server platforms. We use them for the
basis of many of our Linux and Windows NT-based solutions. I'm glad to hear
that you're having a good experience with one.
If I find out that I have availability of these parts, I will send
you an email immediately.
Thanks,
Evan Anderson
Director of Networking
