Sure.  I have a JUMPtec MOPSlcd4 586DX 133MHz, with onboard VGA
(optional Ethernet).  It's a PC/104 format that uses the chipDisk (A
true IDE drive on a chip that doesn't need "fla").  Details at
http://www.emjembedded.com/products/single/specmopslcd4.html

I've also used their VNS-786 system, if you need something with a little
more powerful than a 133.

EMJ has other SBC, but I've not tried them.  If you do, please let me
know how they work.  (I don't work for EMJ, in case you were wondering.
They've just been very helpful to me.)    You can find a local partner
for JUMPtec, the parent company at http://www.jumptec.de/index-en.html
