I built a low-powered FreeBSD server for my house, now I have this nagging fear that it will somehow burst in to flames while I am not around. It's in a tower case that I've been re-using for various builds for a few years, but its so loud that I have to put it (and 2 other machines) in to my closet. Maybe its the heat the 3 machines generate, but I find myself not trusting them, shutting them all down whenever I am gone for more than a day. I'd like a nice silent machine I can keep an eye on. I found this Cappuccino PC site after googling for an American version of a British site called "Hush PC". I'm actually tired of building my machines, so a pre-built one is ideal. Anyone have any experience with FreeBSD 4.x or 5.x on one of these machines?: http://www.cappuccinopc.com/solutions/fanless.asp Also, would a computer from London work in America? The Hush PC's looked pretty good. I think they have different electrical plugs over there, that could be a fire hazard. Thanks!
