That's a good one after all the humidors & kitchen appliances. Functional controller boards are getting pretty small. Kontron has a nice little 3.5" Windows board that will run a 1.8GHz Pentium M, with video, usb, enet, even a built-in Type-1 CF socket, for about 40W total in a 10x15cm space.
Look around the house. If you can fit a 3.5" drive inside, it can be a computer.
