I need something

What I need is the following: a small, very inexpensive computing device that has a screen (color) a RJ-45 port and at least one USB (1.x or 2.x) ports. This way I could have my 2nd device on my desktop plugged directly into the Internet for testing of VPN devices and such. I could use a USB keyboard and mouse for input, no big deal there. I'd prefer Linux of some variety, hopefully a variety that has 'yum' or 'apt-get' to keep things nice and easy.

The device in question cannot ONLY support 802.11x for connectivity. I have to have Ethernet. This is an absolute deal-breaker. If I have to go with a USB Etherent adapter then so be it.

Any ideas?
