First Lead-Free Eden-based Motherboard
April 21, 2004

Yamashita System, Co of Japan has introduced the first lead-free motherboard based on the Eden CPU used in all fanless Mini-ITX boards. The AS-1210 can be considered to be a Micro-ATX version of the EPIA ME6000, with the same chipset and similar capabilities. VIA have been manufacturing environmentally friendly CPUs and companion chips using tin, silver and copper composites for a while now, but Yamashita are the first to introduce an entirely lead-free board.
