I also have an alix at home running yet (Alix 2d2). It's a great one and I made an uptime of 500 days with FreeBSD 8.1 the last year :-). It does not consumes a lot of power ressources neither. However I advise only network gateway / firewall / wifi access uses point because of the small RAM available. It works out of the box with FreeBSD, only ACPI need to be disabled (for a date issue only).
