I use it for standard practises, nothing that makes me stand out.
I am sure some of you out there have legends to tell.

About the fanciest thing I do is k12ltsp on a 800mhz duron as a server and using good old debian on the nslu2. That is not saying much.. I would prefer not to admit to anything else.

I used to run a version of Debian on the Nintendo GameCube a couple years back. That was a bit of a hack, which involved executing code over the local network through an exploit in Phantasy Star Online. Once you got in, you could boot the Linux kernel using NFS, and SSH into the system, or you could even directly load NES and Genesis emulators on it. Cool stuff.

Then there's always the infamous Linux running on a dead Badger.

Haven't tried it, of course.
