I`m looking for a low power consumption computer at a reasonable price that
can handle (probably has them on board) Two NIC`s.  It will be a
firewall/router/server.

I have considered a notebook but am not sure that they can handle Two
pcmcia ethernet cards simultaneously. (Although with USB and USB NIC's,
this might work.)

Some of the really low powered ones on a general search (20 Watts) come
back with a price in the $5-8,000 range.

I don`t need much more than 500MHz and less than $1,000 would be nice.

Anyone come across anything.  Off-list comments would work as this may be
'off-topic'  for most.  Obviously, has to work with FreeBSD.
