Silent Aluminum Point Of Service Terminal
Here's a POS Terminal that found. The entire case is cast aluminum. The computer is very heavy. It uses an ELO 15" touch display. The processor is an Intel 650 Mhz M. It uses either a CF card or 40gig Noteboo HD. It has dual monitor support (touch screen plus one more). The Mobo is double sided with ram on one side, and the CPU on the other. The CPU cooler is in direct contact with the cast aluminum case. The case is the heat sink. This system is completely sealed, and has no moving parts other than inside the hard drive. The HD is mounted behind the touch screen. The system uses a 62 watt external Power Brick. The ONLY sound is a very slight ticking from the HD, if your ear is touching the touch screen. Wouldn't want to use it for gaming, but it's still kinda cool.

Just over a year ago, my company picked up this line. We sell Retail Technology solutions (technology for retailers), mostly Microsoft solutions.
Yes, not cheap, with OS and 40 gig HD about $2,700. Built, primarily for Retail and Restaurant (dirty) environments.
DC converter = 62 watts
I think that the wall mount version would be great for home automation.

very cool. quite a range of OSes there. i'd love to run winCE on a 'normal' computer (or even XPe), i wonder whether its any more efficient than windows98 can be- if not, begs the question; why don't we see win98 on portable devices?. also the 650mhz celeron M is nice. any idea what this system draws? (if u have a kill-a-watt for example).
and is it the 12" or the 15"?
could make a nice bed-side PC; add a couple of usb sticks and u could watch TV or browse the web.. or a high-end squeeze box type thing..
