My source for used 486's have dried up and so I'm looking for a cheap
cheap solution to run some picobsd stuff.  Unfortuantely, this application
is EXTREMELY cost sensitive.

I need at least the following:

486 (any speed) or better.
16mb ram
NO Video/Keyboard
Floppy
IDE Support, but no actual disk (Will add flashdisk).

The price below includes the above items.

It also needs to support:

1 10/100 Ethernet (could be in another slot)
1 either PCI Slot or ISA Slot or PCMCIA slot

I have gotten the price (sans ethernet/PCI) down around $150, but there
HAS to be a way to go even lower somewhere.

Anyone else come up with a cheap solution?

Has anyone actually built one of the FreeBSD based router-like hardwares
yet?
