That link seems to refer to setting up an x86 mini-ITX motherboard and
hard disk inside of a dreamcast; they're merely using the dreamcast
shell as a novelty case. A more informative link might be
http://dcdev.allusion.net, which was linked to on slashdot awhile back
(see http://slashdot.org/articles/02/04/28/019244.shtml?tid=137).
Unfortunately, at time of writing the webserver seems to be down, and I
couldn't find a google cache to the actual webpage. Perhaps the author
is attempting to use this creation as his webserver. ;)
