Donāt let the pressure of Valentineās Day gift giving crash the old operating system. Get to Motherboard Gifts & More ā a matchmaker made in heaven for geeks and geekettes alike. The Chicago-area firm founded in 1991 specializes in the manufacture of high-end, quality gifts.

Another reason the product line is romantically charged: the colors and patterns of the boards vary, making each gift item virtually one-of-a-kind. Just like that special Valengeek.

But since its inception, the firmās bestseller has been the business card case. The slim, metal card case with a board top holds 10-15 cards and fits easily in a pocket or briefcase. And all cases can now be personalized with engraved geek names, mottos, or the lyrics to your favorite love song. Case dimensions are a seductive 2 1/4 x 3 5/8 inches.
The clipboard is also a favorite item. And due to its large, flat surface, among the most visually suggestive. Certain to inspire questions ā Is that a real board? Can I (careful, girls) touch it? Does it really work? ā the nifty board stands out dramatically in contrast to white paper. Three sizes are available. The two largest accommodate standard 8
