I've been also looking at some of the cube computers and some of the half-size boards at http://www.emj.com

Siegbert,
You want one of these babies: http://www.hush-technologies.com/ 1GHz CPU, totally fanless. I think this is about the only piece of computer equipment I've ever seen that I'd be happy to keep on my hi-fi rack :-) You do pay quite a premium for the fancy heatsink/case though, and I'm not sure whether they do a complpetely diskless version.
