How about a $99 SheevaPlug on a vlan? Only 1 gige port which could be a
problem depending on your network setup. I think Tim at the linuxcaffe
got one recently, ask him about it. They're tiny, 512mb ram, running a
1.2ghz arm processor with a usb port too.
http://www.plugcomputer.org lists Gentoo and Ubuntu os images, so I'd
expect any distro with an arm port would run on it very well. 5 watts
power consumption too.
