content: VIA were mostly really low power processors that were copies of Intel/AMD.  Their best x86 processor is still a quad-core at ~1.6Ghz from about 3 years ago.  And they are expensive as hell for what they are.  So far, all I can really find is the 1.2 Ghz Quad with a MiniItx board for about $300.  Unfortunately, I can find nothing that says if they have the ME-style systems built in.
