So... are you running it as a light desktop, or as a mini-server, a 
firewall or what?

I see from the pictures on newegg.com that it has one ethernet port 
already built-in... and it looks like here should two slots for a 
PCI/PCI-Express card, so another NIC could go there... I'm thinking in 
terms of what all I'd need to turn it into a smokin' little 
firewall/gateway/proxy.  The specs mention RAID 0/1 for the SATA 
controller.  Any idea if thats 'real' hardware raid or just fake 
(glorified soft) raid?
