I recommend you avoid Via in general and Epia in particular. I have a
Via Epia Mini-ITX board for my FE and have had nothing but problems
with it. I regret buying it.

A recommendation was made for a laptop... you could take that idea one
step further and get a solid state netbook. Preferably not one with
Via inside. ;)
