Help deciding which MB for Mini ITX Builld

Jetway - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813153124

or

Zotac - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813500022

We have been looking at these two boards. We like the Zotac board because of the wireless option.

Our main use will be basis PC use (email, online games, etc....) We may occasionally hook it up to our HDTV

Please let me know if you have a better option or other input - let me know.

You can get a 10x better atx board for about $75. Why would you want that, you have one pci-e slot and no pci. I suggest a reg. atx.

We are trying to keep the case small because we are putting the computer in a small space in our kitchen. So we need a mini ITX motherboard for the slim case.

Thanks

What CPU are you thinking about using?
I take it your looking for a Small form Factor case setup?

I see, do you just want a suggestion on mobo or on other parts as well? If just the mobo I would say: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813500022

I am sure the onboard wifi isn't as good as you would like it to be.
