[K12OSN] A few ~$200 thin clients to try

I'm looking for a few suggestions on low-power, silent/fan-less thin
clients to test.
But, I do not want to give up much performance.
I've used various desktop machines I've had around for thin clients
and they work great. I have noticed that flash performance is
related to the power of the thin client. I've got a 3Ghz/1GB Dell
setup as a thin client and Flash performance is equal to the desktop
performance. Slower thin clients don't work as well on the same LSTP
server (could be video card, I suppose).
I see on the lists people having problem with flash performance.
So, I'm suspecting that memory on the thin client may play a role as
well as the video.
I'm hoping that something around $200USD or so will get me close to the
"sweet spot" for decent hardware.
Anyone happy with the performance of their low-power, small, and quite
thin client that can offer suggestions of units to try?
Thanks,
