For now I am backing away from the Pogoplug. I found a mini-itx system
quite afordable on ebay to use as my new server.
I will follow the Raspberry Pi development and hope that it will move
from just boards to nice little systems that run current Fedora. This
system presents a major gateway for Fedora into a lot of embedded
applications.

Any recommendations?
newegg.com has a "bookshelf computers" category I was
glancing at the other day. Perhaps one of them
would be good?
Pricey. The cheapest is $85 and it seems to be just the system
with no
memory. I MIGHT have memory here from a system that smoked, but I
can't
tell...
I don't know where you have been looking for prices but in one of
the
UK supplier's web pages it is offered as the model B with memory for
£21.60 which is way less than the $85 that you quoted!
Are you mixing newegg.com online catalog with Rasberry Pi?
Here is what I found on newegg...

Do you have to buy the processor separately?
"Other Thoughts: Very easy to assemble this system, even
though it is very tight. Solid build quality and lot of
though went into the design. I like the custom
heatsink. The
system runs cool, but the fans make some clicking sound, I
may need to talk to the support on that.
Overall a good buy if you have one of those old core i3
clarkdale CPUs lying around."

Oh, I missed that one! Seems like this is a REALLY barebones box!
I understand the goals of pogoplug and Raspberry Pi and their use of
ARM
processors and little memory.
But I want things that are a bit more common and not needing special
compiling and the like. Therefore Intel type architecture and 1Gb
memory. So I do not expect to find this for $50, other than used and
then it won't be low power.

$200, Linux or Android, looks like a pendrive.
Impressive.
Out of my budget, though.
