Actually theres even more cool stuff can be done with these too. If you felt so inclined you could:
1. Install Windows Server 2008 2. Use it to host applications, run them on your regular machine, but using the server to do all the work 3. Multiple instances (cores..) 4. Use it just as your home OS - its 17% faster than vista on identical specs
I got in on a deal on the same machine without the monitor for $430 - actually its a bigger machine (more ram etc, hd, etc), and I am most certainly setting up a server to handle rollouts, files etc. Plus you get all the security of your own server. But, this is a bit of work, and you really need to know what you are doing, certainly worthwhile. I will post an update when I get round to taking it out of its box.
