I'm a bit surprised that no one has brought up the mini pc's from Cappaccino.com take a look at this, http://www.cappuccinopc.com/digitalengine-945fx.asp#pictures it has support for a mini pci card, 2 gigs of ram, 4 usb ports, 1 firewire port, dvd rom and is only 6.5" square by 2" deep. Set it up with a 7" touchscreen which is all you need to see whats going on in mobius and you have on heck of a looping machine.
