When I put my Atom board into my office firewall/router/server box, it ended up sucking about 55W, so a solar panel with at least double, probably 4x that capacity, feeding lead acids, depending on where you live. My "usual" boxes consume much less: http://unicorn.drogon.net/power.jpg So 15W running and that's a 1GHz VIA processor, external "brick" PSU. Where I live - South West England (aka South Wet England) for PV panels, I'd be looking for "huge", although it is encouraging to see lots of little LED based road signs now having a PV panel on top of them. One of the suppliers here has: http://www.navitron.org.uk/product.php?proID=65 they have a small charger/controller to go with these too.
