Thanks! Mine just arrived a few moments ago. It powers up just fine, and appears to be a pretty standard PC with a Phoenix BIOS. It doesn't have a hard drive installed, but I'm planning to use an IDE to CF board.
It's somewhat loud, so I might see about replacing the fans. I can't imagine this gets very hot, but we'll see.
