I was considering looking for one of those HP MicroServers but I refuse
to deal with a support contract.

My suggestion for an alternative would be one of the several systems
based on the Supermicro CSE-721TQ-250B chassis.

Although I am not personally using that particular chassis, I am using
some similar custom built systems with Silverstone cases.
