Last April i built a mini pc box running a VIA C3 EZRA 866. Put gentoo
on it. It only runs under i586 optimizations. 

Runs cool, really dont need a CPU fan, but its a bit slower than my Duron
700 in compiling stuff, (i dont have the pc any longer).

Its great for normal use, a bit slow for the impatient 'emerger'.
