OK sorry I hadn't realized that.  So you are in with a chance ... though
I'd still consider rolling your own minimal setup given the very tight RAM
constraints.  Maybe a pi might work for you as a simple data collection
appliance.  Its probably not going to be much good with analytics/datamart
reporting.  But good luck.  Let us know how you get on.
