It would be interesting to see someone or some company use the Dreamcast as web servers behind a load balancer considering that the Dreamcast is fairly inexpensive compared to the cheapest rackmount servers out there.
Another interesting function that the Dreamcast servers could provide would be a mini-gaming server. It might work as a MUD server or as a simple backend server for web-based games, etc.
