You get a afast atom processor, plenty of memory, a 1 or 2 terrabyte drive and an optical drive for dowin rips. It comes out of the box with SqueezeboxServer preloaded and will automatically rip CDs for you. (stick the CD in, it gets ripped). Its about as simple as it gets.
It has no display or keyboard, its designed to be administered remotely over your network. You can stick it in a corner out of the way, in the basement, in the garage, the storage closet etc. It can also be a general purpose NAS serving files to any computer on your network. It great for storing large collections you want to store on every computer such as music, videos, photos etc. This is a full blown server with all the capabilities of SBS, not a stripped down version such as what is in the Touch.
