I got this one because it was the cheapest and it was fanless. I plan on using it with the powerline ethernet bridge and mounting it in the subwoofer box of a powered speaker set for network audio. I don't have all the details worked out yet, I'm thinking a diskless system booting linux from the network and automatically streaming audio from a network drive... or something.
