I see it as a centralised private cloud server with up to 12TB of RAID1 that is all-round useful enough to be just about anything, even a primary workstation in a pinch with Radeon HD4200 VGA out. Hereabouts (AU) they are very popular so I was kind of hoping that maybe the N40L (at ~$200) could be the basis of an "official" 64 bit version of CeroWrt based on the UML target.
