The first sentence is obviously far out of date. Perhaps someone can update it? Some guy 03:39, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Is BTX dead?
I don't hear about it anymore. ---Ransom
- Netcraft confirms it. The BTX is dead. Project2501a 22:27, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- at least Dell seems to use it for both, Intel and AMD computers, and does not plan to change this, afaik. -- 213.183.10.41 10:31, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] page moved
Ive moved the page from BTX_(computers) to this new location. Title is more accurate and url is less messy. Consulted user:Master_Jay before moving. -- RND T C 17:19, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- What's more accurate about "BTX motherboard", I wonder? BTX is a form factor. A "BTX motherboard" would be a motherboard with the BTX form factor, but that isn't really what the article is about. Compare "four-wheel drive car" as opposed to "four-wheel drive".
- As far as a "less messy" URL goes: this is just how disambiguation works. If a natural title that doesn't need a parenthetical part presents itself, that's great, but if not, there's no need to shy away from it. Really, "messy URLs" are the last thing we should worry about, lest we avoid What Would Brian Boitano Do? because it has a question mark or, indeed, spaces because they show up as underscores.
- How about "BTX form factor" instead? Though really, I think "BTX (form factor)" would be even better, messy URL or no, for the same reason ATX is at ATX: that's just what the thing is called. The part in parentheses is the disambiguation. JRM · Talk 22:40, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
