Lovely tiny wooden PC with built in LCD

Jeffrey Stephenson has been making wooden mods with VIA integrated boards for almost a decade. I've seen designs from him using humidors, clocks and old radios. Often times his designs are inspired by old devices but not actually made out of them. Instead he crafts the wood himself - and that's what he's done here. This one is "inspired from the mantle clock design of Bayard, a French clockmaker."

The Pico Bayard looks like a fancy digital photo frame but it is in fact a complete PC. The article doesn't say what type of board it is but I'm betting on a Pico-ITX model.
"It is a shade taller than your can of coca cola, and houses a 1GHz VIA C7 processor, along with 1GB DDR2 memory."

Now tell me, what other type of hardware can be used for this type of mod other than VIA's?!
