i guess the real question here is what is your interest? are you more interested in having the login functionality when the network link is down or are you more interested in toying with the notion of having samba run on a mini box?

Of course, being able to login at all times is one of the most important factors.

Well, there are many factors; in the end I would like it to be a cheap and reliable domain controller for small offices:

- cost - this mini router (it even has wireless) + USB stick cost less than a PC
- it's small and compact
- stability - there is no fan, no hard disk, no moving parts that can break
- ease of (remote) management (when it's set up properly) - in case of any trouble, someone just turns the device off and on, it'll be up again in a matter of seconds
- it's fun to do something new :)
