ya...now still got a lot of product in the market...too many manufacturer till i dont know which one to choose.
 
These things were NEVER reasonably priced. They were designed for a price is no object, harsh industrial environment. Most manufacturers produce them in such low volumes that they have to keep the prices high.
 
PC/104 is an industry 'standard' that defines the form factor and pin out that several manufactures build. They are designed to run DOS and/or windows but for dedicated imbedded type applications. More costly then most microcontroller applications. I have seen them imbedded inside large analytical instrumentation type products and other high end custom equipment that require PC type performance.

The bigger question is what are you planning to do with it? If you don't need the ability to run in harsh environments there are other SBC type devices that would offer the same sort of flexibility at a fraction of the price.
