Hi,
I would like to do some network experimenting and maybe even run a small experimental web server. For this I am trying to find a small box capable of running Linux or BSD, ideally without harddisk and low power consumption (think of a device much like the DSL router you probably have at home). First question: is this realistic?
Second part: I searched the web and did indeed find some sites (see below) but still have the feeling that I am not looking for the right terms or in the right locations. I still could not get to a site that has a shopping guide or at least sells products from multiple vendors so I can compare features and prices. Here's what I found so far
Systems presented there still seem larger and more power consuming than what I have in mind.
They also have some product infos but this does not really seem to be the major focus of the site and hence it feels a bit unordered.
Both look promising, but these are just singular devices.
EPC-200 looks a bit like what I am looking for but again this is just one vendor.
So, do you have some pointers or at least terms I should be looking for? I tried phrases like "embedded PC", "embedded system", "embedded Linux", "fanless pc" so far - should I rather be looking for particular processor names or board sizes
Thanks for any hints!
robert
