The observant will have noticed one of these early uses of mother-board are in conjunction with baby-board, and not today's common daughterboard. A mother-baby relationship seems more appropriate in this context than mother-daughter.
They are both very similar. Breadboarding is making a circuit on a breadboard while waterboarding is making a circuit on someone's nipples whit a car battery while you're pouring water over their face.
Does it? All the connectors I'm thinking of on the motherboard have protruding pins, which seem a lot more phallic to me. Are they really considered the 'female' connectors?

So daughter boards were earlier referred to as baby boards. Mother to baby seems a more obvious link than farther.
If 1 motherboard can make 1 babyboard in 9 months, can 3 motherboards make 1 babyboard in 3 months?
No. When you see 2 or 3 motherboards together, the are probably doing rasbian stuff.
Neat.
Wonder why the terminology changed. Maybe baby-board/childboard didn't roll off the typewriter as well?
wait till you hear about white and black boards.
Or master and slave boards...
There's also bread- and waterboards

Does the nipple thing cost extra?
Only if you enjoy it

Wait until you run into stepmother boards.
There's two types. The first are the evil stepmother boards that make you do all the hard work.
The other is the good stepmother board that gives you handjobs or takes your virginity
No.
Noooo, boats cars and computers are girls and therefore have girl parts.
