[geeks] Looking for a Modern Motherboard w/ Dual Floppy Support

All of the current motherboards, that I can find, if they have a
floppy controller, at all, only support one drive.  I have a need to
still use a 3.5" and a 5.25" floppy drive, so that won't work.  Also,
using a USB 3.5" floppy greatly limits the types of disks that I can
write, so that's also not an option.

I'd like to find an as-recent-as-possible small motherboard (micro ATX
or less) that still supports two floppies.  As an alternative, I'd
take a fairly small desktop computer from a major reseller, that
supported the same (Dell, HP, etc.).  I've searched for days, and not
come up with much.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
