new (low power use) server

Hi, I'm just trying to sort myself a new server.  Requirements are:
1: Lower power use than currently (power meter shows my current PC to use
about
90Watts steadily.
2: Run Linux for serving printing, files(via Samba and NFS), home
automation via
Mrhouse, Slimserver (for 6 devices)
3: Three serial devices (W800RF32AE), CM11 and WMR928NX weather station.

I'm currently favouring a small machine... based on mini-ITX and would
welcome
any comments.  (two hard drives plus DVD-RW is my plan as well).  The
serial
ports seem to be the stumbling block these days.

regards, robin
