If at first you don't succeed, do it like your mother told you.

I don't have one but I'd love to get my hot little hands on one...or three. However the FFO (family financial officer) says nay-nay to me having any more computers, considering in the house (including my work-issued laptop), there are as follows -- generically listed, no model numbers since I don't know them offhand:

HP EX490 - media streaming and file shares
HP EX487 - backups
HP laptop - SharePoint 2010
Dell XPS 710 desktop - SQL Server 2008 R2
HP dv7 multimedia laptop - my daughter's PC
HP EliteBook 8540w - work-issued PC
HP desktop - Windows 8
HP dv9 multimedia laptop - my personal PC
HP multimedia laptop - my wife's PC
HP desktop - Exchange 2010
iPad (1st generation) 32 GB WiFi
HP TouchPad 32 GB dual-boot with Android and webOS

Personally I think a few MicroServers would fit in nicely with these. :)

You know what would be REALLY amazing?! You open it up and all the components are made of Lego too!! :D
