JackPC

Now, how lame is it that you're an alpha geek, yet you still have your PC sitting on your desk rather than having it embedded in your wall? The Israeli company ChipPC at least has got it's thinking cap on, and is already selling a thin PC client so small it can be embedded in a network wall port; it's called the JackPC. To be fair, this isn't really intended for home use; sysadmins reading this should perk up though. Thin clients are essentially terminals with the ability to process data, but have no hard drive. They connect to servers and are much easier to maintain than desktop PCs, for a bunch of reasons, one of which being that they don't catch viruses due to their having no hard drive.
