Raspberry Pi, Beagle Board, Soekris, NUCs, ...
I've been using Soekris boards for years now (a few net4801s, a net5501, and a net6501). They're excellent machines for FreeBSD or Linux, and broadly compatible with PCs, as they use x86 CPUs.
However, I must say that I am tempted by some of the newest little boards out there that are quite inexpensive: the raspberry pi, and the beagle board. I might just buy one of those to display various info and RSS feeds on a big mounted screen that we've got at the office.
The Raspberry Pi is nice, but I quite like the fact that the beagle board is Open Source Hardware.
