I am running a mini-itx board with a VIA Samuel 2 CPU (800MHz) for two
years now without problems. Only recently I have run into its
limitations because it isn't 686 compatible (only 586) and therefore
cannot run Xen.
If you are seriously considering Oracle, you should be careful when
choosing a mainboard, though. Oracle needs a lot of RAM (IIRC more than
512MB, but I am not sure), so pick a mainboard that uses DDR RAM instead
of SD. DDR should be a lot cheaper.
