I might put up my hand at some future offer - though the crazy low price for Rick's nifty little find:

Reminder: Yr. humble servant being a Bloody Yank despite knowing how to spell 'colour' and having generally Pommie diction[1], and being a decent cricket batsman, said link's pricing is in US$, and I am not totally certain that Newegg is an Oz vendor. (You would know, presumably.) I do know that some (e.g.) ASRock motherboard models are available in Oz but not North America and vice-versa, as well.
i don't think newegg will ship to australia. ISTR reading somewhere once upon a time that they don't...by my brain's ram is non-ecc and fallible. there are, however, several shops and online stores that sell HTPC and mini/micro-ITX gear. try a google search for "Kabini site:au" or "AM1 site:au" shopbot, for example, shows several places that have an almost identical model to the one Rick mentioned (but with built-in wifi) for around $145 http://www.shopbot.com.au/m/?m=ASRock+QC5000-ITX no-one seems to have the model without wifi.
