I think they are called "stand-offs". I too got mine from Ultimarc but I like them enough that I'd like to have a bag on hand for the future. They are way better than those little things that are packed in with motherboards. If anyone find them in quantity and at a cheap price, please post the source. I think the Ultimarc ones were like $3 for 4 of them.

Aren't "stand-offs" something else? The suggestion to use a BIC pen sounds more like a stand-off to me. Mounting feet are screwed to something and stay on when you remove the board. Stand-offs are in line with the screw (more like spacers) and fall off when you remove the board.
I'd buy the real thing everytime, but then I'm not trying to save a few bucks (on a machine costing several thousand anyway)

I'm using screw on mounting feet. You can also get stick on ones, but I didn't trust the adhesive over time.
