One of my cow orkers bought one.  If they'd just put an external scsi on it,
it would be like UDB Mark II.  Pretty neat looking box.  I don't know if they
fixed the original limitation (which seemed pretty damn strange to me) of not
having expandable memory.  Like the UDB, they should have put in better
graphics (8 bit colour sucks).  I think it would make a decent web server or
ftp server for a server farm, and a cool hobby box if you had a "real" machine
for serious work.
