I'm buying a Shuttle SV24 for LDRAW and Linux. It's a toaster-sized PC you
can put together for under $600:

So Eric,
Did you ever buy one?  How did it go?

I'm asking because I just went through ordering two SV25's (the later edition)
and both of them ended up being dead on arrivial. :(  All my components are

things is superior to the ASUS P4 board I experienced.
