Think man!  That price you are thinking of comes from volume discounts
that
motherboard manufacturers get.  You know, the pricing for lots of 5000 or
10000?

(Not to mention that it's still more expensive than that)

Go ahead and buy your cheap little motherboard if it exists.  I wonder
what it's performance would be.
