Is there a reason you're not looking at ARM stuff? There are several nifty devices out there -- I'm going to be moving most of my stuff over to these things: http://www.marvell.com/products/embedded_processors/developer/kirkwood/sheevaplug.jsp The big drawback on these guys is the lack of video; my next desktop will be an asus eeebox, which are available with ATI 3450 graphics chips. I know the R500 and newer ones have only emergent support in the FOSS world; however, ATI has opened up some drivers and is promising to open them all. I've run far and wide in search of open, low-power systems. I thought I hit pay dirt with the OLPC XO-1, but the wifi requires a binary blob. I think a handful of plugtop computers, an asus eeebox with Slackware on it, and my nokia n810 will suffice. # Kurt H Maier
