This is a dual-lan Mini-ITX computer. It used to run as an Untangle firewall and security appliance. This entire kit is only about 2 months old. The company I bought it for ended up not wanting it. It includes the following parts:

1 x Jetway NC92-330-LF Intel Atom 330 Dual Core 1.6GHz Mini-ITX Motherboard
1 x Jetway 1 x Gigabit Ethernet LAN Module (AD1RTLANG)
1 x 2GB DDR2 Memory 667MHz
1 x 20gb 2.5" PATA hard drive, 5400rpm
1 x Morex 5689 Industrial Mini-ITX Enclosure w/60W A/C Adapter. This is a great case. See pics!
All product manuals, documentation and driver CDROM (but you don't need these drivers).

Jetway NC92-330-LF Intel Atom 330 Dual Core 1.6GHz Mini-ITX Motherboard
This Mini-ITX motherboard features the popular Intel Atom 330 (dual-core 1.6GHz w/ HyperThreading Technology) processor and pairs it with the Intel 945GC + ICH7 chipset. This motherboard supports up to 2GB of DDR2 memory and also has the Jetway Daughter Board Expansion connector.

Jetway 1 x Gigabit Ethernet LAN Module (AD1RTLANG)
Add 1 additional 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Port using this daughter-board expansion module. Connected to the expansion module connector on the NC92-330-LF Mini-ITX motherboard you be able to utilize 2 x Gigabit LAN ports (1 onboard and 1 on the expansion board).

Morex 5689 Industrial Mini-ITX Enclosure w/ 60W A/C Adapter

This enclosure will house 1 x Mini-ITX motherboard and 1 x 2.5" harddrive. The chassis features built-in wall-mount system for mounting versatility. The enclosure has a built-in DC-DC board and is bundled with a 60W AC/DC adapter.

It is hard to tell how this case works from the pic, so I'll try to explain it. The case includes a special base that slides on and off. You mount the base where you want it (wall, ceiling, etc), then slide the enclosure onto the base and turn the key. The enclosure is secure on the base and it's a great mounting system. The case is very sturdy. The manufacturer says it's aluminum, but it's steel. This case is extremely small: 9.5" x 7.5 x 3.5". It's about the size of a thick hard-cover book.

The power supply is external and looks like this:

The 40 to 44pin ribbon cable is being used in the case for the harddrive.

Please feel free to ask questions. I'm looking to get $235 shipped. I'll most likely ship it UPS ground or priority mail. It comes with no operating system, but I can install Untangle or SmoothWall on it if you'd like. My heat is here: http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=27707

free bump - really considering this; although can't justify another itx system running around in my home :) (need time to come up with an excuse)
 
I've always wanted to run a mini ITX system as a router/firewall. Does untangle do routing? I'm assuming performance would be much higher than most consumer routers during heavy loads?
 
Yes, Untangle can also do routing as well. And yes, this performs very nicely under large loads. I tested it out in an approx 100 seat network with a T3 pipe to the Internet and it didn't even stutter.

Accepting offers!
 
Asides from firewall/router, what else can this thing do? It looks neat!
 
It can do pretty much anything. It would be great as a desktop client: office work, email, web browsing, coding, etc. It wouldn't be the best option for anything that is CPU intensive, like video editing or 3d modeling.
 
Thanks for the bumps. Mobo, daughtercard and memory sold. Case still available. I'll edit the post later today.
