I've seen those at the local Uni surplus (at a substantially higher
price, too high for me to justify playing with).
Since you have one, what can you *do* with them? Run Citrix? I did
some initial digging when I saw a few float by, but unless you are in
a strong MS environment, what good are they? ISTR they have a Compact
Flash card. Is it possible to run an OS on them, or are they locked
into whatever their BIOS/firmware allow?

Nice score. Handy for that basement VCR, too!
Wish the Thrifts in Ohio didn't suck so bad. :-(
