I've just bought a VIA M10000G from the MM. Bit of an impulse purchase, but they are the most enjoyable :)

I'd like to keep it as silent and small as possible, so was planning to use either a CF card (via a CF to ATA converter) or a USB flash drive instead of a hard drive.
Can anyone tell me if this is likely to work well?
I only want it for web browsing and watching non-HD movies on. The movies will all be streamed from my NAS.
Any CD/DVD needs will be fulfilled with an external drive.

I'm going to use a Pico PSU and will build a custom enclosure.
 
SSD's are just too expensive at the moment. Sepped isn't critical, and CF's are cheap enough to replace if needed.
The board supports a max of 1Gb. Any suggestions on a decent flavour of Linux?
