Yeah, I've lived in Oregon since 1989 and have voted down a state sales tax almost every year! You would think that once we said "NO!" that would be the end of it, but it keeps coming back.....
Hi There,
You don't mention what kind of budget is at your disposal but I give the following.
My parents used to live 17 miles from the nearest utility pole. Yet, there house had standard lights, standard refrigerator and microwave. Clock radio's etc. In other words you never would have known they were not on "The Grid". My Dad built the power system himself and it consisted of Solar, Wind, and generator with high quality inverters and batteries.
Oh, by the way, this was about a 3000 Square foot house so there was lot's of power used.
Anyway, if you are interested in talking with him about power generation just email me back and I'll be glad to give you his name and phone number. My dad is NOT affiliated with anyone or anything selling anything to do with power generation. He's just a great guy who would probably be glad to help you out.
Good luck with the remote living!

They sell a silent diskless computer that could probably with little modification fit your needs!

Sort of like a horror movie!
