need help in choosing small, fanless computer that works flawlessly with LL 2.0
Scott:
Hi Jhellno,
If you haven't already made a decision CompuLab is rumored to make great stuff. Linux Mint is joined with them to produce their MintBox PC.

Is an ASUS eeePC701SD or ASUS 901 small enough? Neither are fanless but are very quiet. There used to be lots for sale (and cheap!) in the US. I run LL2.0 without problems on both models. My 701SD has been running 24/7 for six months, as a remote access server. The 901 runs LL2.0 on a 32GB class 10 SDHC as the primary SSD is too small capacity for LL2.0
HTH :)

I would check if the machine works on debian and/or ubuntu. If so, it is highly like to work for LL. Whatever you ordered, make sure there is a reasonable return time. And when you get the machine, try a liveCD/liveUSB of LL
and see if everything works.
Also, there is a lonnngggggg list of retailers in my website (signature) -> retailers -> linux preinstall vendors.

Intel NUC are excellent, would go with 4th Generation models:
