SUMMARY: low-powered machine

Well, it turned out that my question about finding a "low-powered DC
intel-based machine" elicited a common response of "you mean a laptop?"
Yeah, I guess I did from the posted question. We've since drastically
changed and refined what we need and we're going with an Ultra AXe 300 card,
but I thought I'd summarize the laptop responses I got:

A few people suggested a website at http://www.tadpolerdi.com.

And another interseting thing to look at is:

"http://www.tapr.org/tapr/html/Fcfa.html. This is a
compactFlash board (essentially a carriage) to connect to the IDE
controller. You can boot from a SanDisk CompactFlash just like a hard drive.
That would help save you some power."

Thanks very much to all who responded.
