I've been following the hardware threads comparing embedded versus more
horsepower systems and came to the conclusion that I'd stick with my
embedded Alix board because it is stable and low-power. Recently,
however, I am seeing botnet attempts, reported via OpenDNS, against my
home network. So, I want to run Snort. And here I'd need horsepower.
I researched an earlier post of "SUPERMICRO MBD-X7SPE-H-O Mini ITX Intel
Atom" board and it looks like a good option. Albeit a bit expensive. It
can handle 4 GB RAM. So the question is what kinds of enclosures are
good for this form-factor? I'll probably go with a laptop drive. The
enclosures at my local Fry's all look pretty flimsy and crappy.
