Glad to make a difference. Thanks for building the PiBox, BTW. It looks to be a great product, and I'm looking forward to getting mine soon. (Since you've said y'all are assembling them here in Texas, I'm hoping my shipping is quicker, since I'm here in Austin!)
I've done a few hardware startups, and while they're definitely a much bigger PITA than straight software, they're also more rewarding because they create a lasting tangible artifact of value. (And because you mostly can't fix your screwups by pushing a new build or patch, so you just have to do a better job up front.)
I agree with you that standard servers are really valuable, and hope this convergence of open hardware and software architectures is how that concept can gain traction and momentum in the marketplace. And yeah, these little computers are really capable of quite a lot of real world work!
