Compaq's iPaq?

Apple's discontinued G4 cube via Debian PPC?

HP has its version of the iPaq coming out in October (I think) that's 
pretty small as desktops go and can be pre-loaded with Mandrake 8.0.

Maybe an older Cobalt server?

What do you want to use it for? I think Linksys had a fileserver/DHCP 
server/network printer capable box being run by Linux, but I'm not sure 
how accessible the guts were.
