It'd be cool as a wall-mountable computer.

With a 7" touchscreen, it'd be nice for as a low-cost home automation computer, with Windows Vista, since I'd like to build my own home automation program involving WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation).

I like Samsung UMPC Q1, but I don't need all the speed and power.

However, I do care for a low-capacity hard drive, with all the features stripped off such as Windows Media Center, Remote Desktop, etc. although it can be removed from the Add/Remove program's Windows component list.

To sum this up, I do like to have all the nice effects, but because I care for functionality, I care for only a minimum power speed (maybe an underclocked Core 2 Duo Mobile) and adaquate amount of graphics power (something equavulant to nVidia gForce6 6100), but with 1GB of RAM to help keep disk swapping down to a minimum. Last but not least, about 10 to 15GB of hard drive is adaquate (no more than 15GB) as this would be the purpose for the home automation controller.
