What software are you running on them? There are a couple of options out
there including the WAR boards (once StarOS V3 is released) or I have heard
of several people having great success with the VIA mini-itx fanless boards.
Both remove the CPU as a bottle neck.
I *knew* there was something I was forgetting... :)
Right now, most of them are running StarOS, but I'd like to still be
flexible. (I have a few of these boards as CPE, mainly running RouterOS.)
The WAR boards, and the Routerboard 500s, both look very good for their
specific jobs, but you're more-or-less tied to a certain software
distribution there (i.e. you can't run RouterOS on a WAR, StarOS on a
RB500, etc.).
Hey, one of these days I might get a wild notion to just install a 2GB
flash card and Slackware at a tower location. You never know. Thus, my
magical ideal board should probably be x86-compatible too.
I've been looking at the VIA boards. The only problem is that most of
them only have one onboard Ethernet port, and only one PCI slot. So I
could have my multiple Ethernet ports, OR my miniPCI adapter, but not both.
