After thinking about it, Instead of talking about this, do something. Gear a Arch Linux ARM business option for businesses. The Biz option is pretty expensive but it is mostly software and configuration, the hardware is pretty much the same as your basic V2 or pro. Make it attractive for potential Biz users to choose Arch Linux ARM install over basic Pogoplug offering. Under applications, productivity, there is nothing at all, looks bad. Add a business section, with suggested packages and setup (most office IT people should figure it out on their own but may need prodding, especially since most are familiar with Debian/Ubuntu/Redhat and not Archlinux). Check out the specs on the Biz and recreate it on a regular pogo. Right now, there seems to be issues with access/connectivity by regular Biz users, so make sure samba and afp connectivity is stressed. For cloud, web server (apache, lighttpd, cherokee), webdav. Email, dovecot et al. Make sure php and mysql are in good shape. Mike, you once mentioned as crimsonredmk that you would increase howtos, now is the time to do it. Think about it.
