I'm aiming to try using an Acer Aspire Revo as the 'server' box but it only has one wired ethernet NIC (as do nearly all reasonably priced low power boxes) so I'll need to use its wireless LAN too. I'd like to use its hardwired Gigabit interface to connect to my existing LAN with our desktop machines, NAS etc.
Hmm, for that sortof thing we tend to use soekris boxes... though, they're not as cheap but they do work... otherwise, just pick up something from: http://linitx.com/viewcategory.php?catid=79&pp=79
Most should be able to have other operating systems on 'em (actually, I think the first 3 come with nowt on 'em, and you'd want to buy a CF card to install to).
