These guys have the Abit KT7A mobo for $125 plus $10 shipping, and the 900 Thunderbird for $110 plus $5 shipping. $240 total with shipping for mobo and processor sounds good to me.

I don't think you will find a better deal, and they may even knock a little more off the shipping if you order them together.

Tyan, MSI, and Soyo are one the cheap side but they are good brands.
