[Cialug] Raspberry Pi Question

According to their FAQ: http://www.raspberrypi.org/faqs

That is, graphics capabilities are roughly equivalent to Xbox 1 level of

So real world use cases are where you need something cheap, with very low
cpu power but the power of a full-blown Linux and a decent video decoder
are helpful.

Honestly, I can't think of anything either.
