Question ID: 508138
For a small research project, I have a requirement for about 8 small,
reliable, full-function pcs, such as strealthcomputers.com.

Required features:
1- fully functional pc that can run windows or linux
2- fanless
3- mem at least 512mb
4- disk at least 20gb
5- 10/100 ethernet built-in
6- at least one USB port built-in
7- no kbd/display required, will run without; will use
   any old kbd/display for development/debugging

Desirable but not essential:
1- power supply built in so it only requires an AC cord,
   and won't have external power supply unit

I'd like list of vendors/suppliers meeting these requirements.
Thanks!

This is different but kind of neat:

Dell has something not quite what you asked for (almost certainly has
a fan and bigger) but probably a lot cheaper than other options and
available warranty/service:
(Optiplex sx280 on right)

This brand has been "around," not sure if that makes them good or not.
 Note that the cheapest unit will not handle your memory requirements.
 It labels the grill as "ventilation" which makes me think it's just
holes, not a fan, but it doesn't exactly say.

Try the following two links:

http://www.littlepc.com/
http://www.cappuccinopc.com/

Prices for the accessories for cappuccinopc sound a bit on the high end.

voodoopc.com (Doll)

Voodoo is famous for quality products and their rating on
resellerratings.com proves it.

Little pricy though.
