Thanks for the suggestion Raymond.  There are a few arm boards around 
but as you said, I think they require a lot of effort.  I'm a java guy 
and would love a 24/7 arm server, I use a alix at the moment for my 
always on duties (my atom server has the ability to nap).  When I've 
looked in the past at arm, it just does not work, or is too much hard work.
