Dell N2828 "Wilson" motherboard is all I can glean from Google.
I can't identify the original manufacturer at present - pictures available for a couple of months on this eBay auction, if anyone else can glean any info.

Intel D865VP but that won't do any good, this is an OEM-only board without any retail counterpart.
