Ask better places.  :-)   The Turion 64 has kept some socket 754  
motherboards available, and even caused a couple of manufacturers to  
offer newer revisions with more up-to-date LAN/audio support.  An  
interesting choice if power consumption/quiet cooling is important.

Users Side, T-Zone, and TwoTop all have socket 754 motherboards.
