I think BTX is supposed to be geared toward desktop style computers as opposed to tower style computers (going back to the old ways maybe).

Intel says that given ATX is quite an old standard and computers are quite hot nowadays BTX has been designed with better airflow and lower noise in mind.

Here's a link with some more info, formfactors.org is run by Intel IIRC.

Oh yeah and I like vs. threads but you need to make a poll and say "which one is better" I did that on Opteron 144 vs. X2 4400+
