Why can't I get a small mobo for old processors? Everything should have shrunk substantially in the last 30 years.

- bombcar 3y agoBecause designing a new motherboard is an expensive and painful process, so it's usually reserved for new processors. The SBC market is full of things that are small and new. But old processors are often run in old equipment, which has lots of space. And if you're running a new-old board, you often want bulky connectors anyway.
