The processor, more fully, is "Intel Pentium 4 631 Cedar Mill 3.0GHz
2MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Single-Core Processor".

The board I have settled on is "BIOSTAR TFORCE945P LGA 775 Intel 945P
ATX Intel Motherboard".

These are the newegg descriptions.  I bought a Biostar and it arrived
DOA so I had to RMA it.  But it turns out it's no longer in stock.
This one above is almost exactly the same thing, with minor updates,
for exactly the same price.

I was kind of hoping to get a quality motherboard instead.  An Asus or
something.  But nothing they had really fit the bill.
