I think one of the Pogo plug series will likely be your best bet. The pro is lacking in ram (256?) but has onboard SATA, Wifi and a shed load of USBs and can be bought for $20-30 iirc.

Failing that one, why not get one of those chinese tablets. The Ainol Elf (classic) runs Ubuntu and has 1gig ram. Thre's even a desktop varient which has SATA (but only 512mg)

Thank you for answering my question, the pogo plug is similar to the sheeva plug, see down.

A tablet wont do, too large, I want to plug it in, configure the stuff and rather forget about it physically, it should gather a lot of dust on the outside.
