This one sounds interesting. One eth port is enough. Can you install
plain ol' Slackware on an USB key or SD card and just boot them? I
prefer not to waste time with patches, kernel modules etc.

Sounds interesting, but I don't want to be a guinea pig anymore.
I'll go for it only if somebody reports a successful slackware
install on it.

Thanks for the pointer. Yet they are on 12.2. I would really like to
stay on the latest stable release, and waste little time to keep it
up to date. I often use slapt-get for that purpose.

Perhaps a bit too big but I've been running a unit from these guys:
http://www.lex.com.tw/product/LIGHT-h.htm

MiniITX based stuff, runs Slack without a problem.

Something like this might fit the bill too, but I haven't used it myself:
