Has anyone tried running NetBSD on the new VIA C7 mini-itx boards?
For example, the JetWay J7F2:

looks very appealing to me. It supports daughterboards, including
ones with 1 or 3 ethernet interfaces, for a total of 2 or 4.
The C7 chips are apparently much faster and lower-power than the C3
chips. I've been generally happy with my C3-based CL6000E board, but
it's awfully slow.
