It does everything that I'd otherwise have a server for:
* remote access through ssh
* serving music with Firefly (28000+ tracks)
* generating and uploading my daily random podcast: http://scruss.com/autocast/
* (soon) monitoring my power usage via an Arduino-based logger.

I've been running it for more than 18 months with no mishaps. I've got
it with root on a 8GB SD card and an external 500GB drive for the
music.

cheers,
 Stewart
