To adequately answer this question, you need to determine your resources. Will you build your own brackets or buy them? What is your budget for the project? What are your final objectives and applications, and level of experience?

There's some complete postings in this forum about scratch robots, and you could follow through from the start to finish, and gain enough information to design your own.

Both the Hammer and the Gumstix look like good choices. I particularly like the small form factor of the Hammer, the Gumstix is larger but with the benefit of more peripherals on-board. Have a bit of a google, build a short-list and post it here for people to comment on.
