Honestly, one is not sure - Tom might be a better person to ask as he's the 'other guy' interested in these devices. For me, I suppose like everything else made of silicon and full of electrons that falls into my hands I'd probably end up seeing how good it is at hashing - bitcoins for morons I guess, rainbow tables for me. I like passwords more than cryptocurrency (although I do also like cryptocurrency - the idea perhaps more than the reality). 18 crappy ARM cores versus my multi-GPGPU rig is like bringing a knife to a thermonuclear holocaust fight though so I'll probably have to think of something more practical to do with it. Suggestions welcome. Either way, I'll inevitably buy one just because.
