The main problem would be memory. Yeah, Google says that the ATV2 only
comes with 256M, which is probably not enough to do anything useful as a
server (like the Touch). But the ATV3 has 512MB: enough to satisfy quite
a few people. 

Datapoint: Apple only sold 3 Million of these ATV boxes last year, but
that's OK, because they think of them as a "corporate hobby". 

FWIW, I picked up a Dell SX270 for about $60 on eBay. Ugly little thing,
but works really well running LMS+Debian.
