Well maybe we can do some hack to make it work.

They wont be, the chipset is quite new (2006) I think. But I can add the support 
and you can adjust it to fit the generic layer (ITE ICH VIA)

I think I will go for Asus M2V-MX SE it has SPI in flash, VT8237S and K8M890. If 
we decide soon I can buy it on Monday, I will have way around the shop, I need 
to buy smth for university lab anyway (yes they are open on Holiday :)

The board has serial line and SPI in socket. I checked some electronics stores 
and they have some SPI chips in stock (cheapest around 1EUR). I need to check 
this more, because the cheapest have no online datasheet.

Thanks,
Rudolf
