I've got one sitting on my desk atm, the epie board is very well
supported try #epie on freenode.

Its quiet, has one very quiet fan on board, and the case has a small fan
in the PSU you can get newer ones with passive cooling for the chips
too.

Cost is very cheap as well you can get case/board/chip for <200.
