Linutop

Linutop are selling a small, completely silent linux box. It's based on an AMD Geode and comes with 256 Mb of RAM. The only storage is provided via the front usb panels, which is a bit of a shame (it wouldn't be so bad if there were some rear USB port to keep the USB flash disk out of sight, or even better a Compact Flash port) and comes with a USB flash disk that has Xubuntu on it.

It's the sort of device I want to get to try getting Asterisk running on, as part of my long and slowly running plan to reduce the noise level and power consumption in my flat - at the moment it's like sleeping in a server room.
