Check out VIA's hardware. Something like this:

1GHz dual-core CPU is nice. It is very expensive though, and has a fan,
but I believe there is a less expensive model, and also a less powerful
one with totally passive cooling. You could use small DC-DC converter
and a 90W 'brick' PSU to power the beast without any fans. Hardware
random number generator and cryptographic engine work with FreeBSD, AFAIK.
