Req: Recommendation on VIA EPIA Boards/Small Dual Lan units
I'm looking to buy/assemble a "cheap" small, hopefully fanless, machine for an obsd project of spurious "real" value other than to satisfy my current network tinkering needs. I'm looking at the VIA EPIA-6000 board since it has dual lan and would thus be useful for actual firewall/router playing around, but figured someone might have some additional insight on how (un)well obsd works with this board, or even alternates that might be cheaper/better (not necessarily both) for me long-term.
I normally wouldn't have even brought it up except for a few recent mentions of how well obsd works on the VIA C3 CPU's, which prompted some (un)healthy looking into available hardware options after a fresh paycheck. :)

Failure may not be an option, but it's always a possibility.
