OK, I admit. Have not spent too much time with Mr Google on this one, but here goes hoping for a short-cut answer................

I would like to run each of my seven repeater sites (mains/grid powered with 12v standby bat) each with it's own URI and AllStar node. Some sites will have two URI's.

Question;
What PC should I use at each site (12v PC would be nice, and with "auto power on" from dead battery when mains power returns)

I had a look here http://www.mini-itx.com/ but the amount of choice is overwhelming. No idea which one is suitable.
Then there is this thing called a Beagle Board??


The processor must be fast enough to handle 2x URI's. I tried using a HP netbook and an Asus eeePC  but voice overs were a bit choppy as if the processor was battling.
I do not really want fans, hard drives or any other antiquated moving devices (when are we going to see quiet, passive pc's at the workplace?)
I do not need wireless, just an Ethernet port.
