[kwlug-disc] Mini-ITX Hardware and Linux

[Kyle Spaans]

Hello everyone,

I'm planning on purchasing a VIA-based Mini-ITX system to use as my
primary desktop.

Does anyone have any experience with mITX hardware? Research tells me
that hardware should be well supported under Linux, especially with
VIA's recent effors with the OSS community.

I was going to buy from minipc.ca, but it seems like they're closed!
NCIX.com doesn't seem to have any of the VIA EPIA boards, but lots of
Jetway ones. Can anyone recommend other potential places to buy from?

Thanks a bunch!
