I guess it depends on what you want to sell the box as.  You could make a
nice firewall/mail server/web server/dns box out of it.  Or you could make
a box for doing C development, as long as the time it takes to compile a
large program wouldn't be a problem.  The drive is a bit small to use it
as a file server, but plenty big enough for a print server.
