Back awhile, Alan spoke about selling a new(next?) A1 series board running Linux to the server farm market.

Is the A1 Lite that board?

Targeting (IIRC) folks with >5000 servers the big selling point would be an operating savings in space, power, & air condtioning, of 100 to 150 Euros per unit per year.  If this works out Eyetech sells a ton or two or three of these boards with Yellow Dog and the Amiga community gets the pricing benefit of high production runs.

Maybe I've missed something since I don't know diddly about commercial servers. Sure hope I'm right, tho!
Best,
