I've been on Globalscale's treadmill since the very first "SheevaPlug" release. It wasn't until 2 products later "Dreamplug" that they really worked out their heat and power problems. I'm a bit worried that a device like this, crammed in with a hard disk is going to bring all that back up again. Its great if its cheap to run 24/7, but it has to actually be able to do this without overheating and locking up twice a week to be useful. I'm hopeful though. I've had great luck with $149 Dreamplugs as permanent home servers. This is cheaper and fits the hard drive inside. Nice. With these on the scene, it becomes ridiculous to "turn that old desktop into a home server". That 100watt desktop will cost you as much in power in a year as just buying one of these, not to mention being noisy, large and ugly.
