In 1999, Intel created a variant of the microATX called the FlexATX.

FlexATX motherboards have maximum dimensions of just 9 by 7.5 inches,

which makes them the smallest motherboards in the ATX standard. FlexATX

is pretty much gone now.

ITX

VIA Technologies started the process to create a small form factor (SFF)

motherboard, the ITX. The ITX itself wasn’t a success, but VIA in turn

created smaller form factors that today populate the SFF market, specifically

Mini-ITX.

Mini-ITX is a miniscule 6.7 by 6.7 inches (see Figure 6-10) and competes

head to head with the virtually identical microATX.
