Need tips on a new board

[pentium]

Well one of my friends gave me their old Emachines T1440 last night and after I gutted it of all it's contents (minus the cd-rw drive), I replaced the floppy drive with my only LS-120 drive.
Now that little fetish has been taken care of (I have been wanting to use that in a system for months), I need to find a better board to install.
Problem:
Due to the case limitations There are only four card slots. The only boards I own that would fit that are the old motherboard (which has no AGP, eww) and the old motherboard from my parents computer.
Did they make any reasonable three/four slot boards with AGP support?

Don't you mean a Micro ATX board? Most Emachines I've seen can use any modern Micro ATX board, and there are plenty with AGP.

Here's an example-

Though you can find ones for Intel too, and probably get a used board cheaper

That is wonderful!
What is there with socket 478 or socket 370 with AGP?

Yuck. VIA chipset.

I salvaged an eMachine from the bin. Recapped it, but it is still dead. Pity. The Intel cpu, etc, is working, so it is off to Fry's for a cheaping Micro ATX board.

Ya I hate VIA these days too, that was just an example.

I was saying that the layout was the one I was looking for. Who said I wanted VIA chipsets?
