I've bought a couple from Small Green Computer (Andrew, the founder of
Vortexbox, store front) and built several for family and friends.  I
think it is one of the best Linux platforms for a LMS based media
platform.  Keep in mind that it goes beyond just trying to host LMS and
provides a number of other services (CD ripping, metadata via BLISS,
FLAC->MP3 sync, etc.) as well.  The community also is constantly
extending the platform and you can find a number of useful
utilities/add-ons.  If the Vortexbox interests you, then you might want
to drop in on their forum directly.  The community is very helpful and
Ron Olsen is an omnipresent guru that helps with all matter of things
(very helpful for giving non-Linux users context and perspective for
some of the internals).
