Is this likely to be the case anytime soon? Because I too would like to be able to effectively disable the GPU and utilize those 'wasted' mb. Using my Pi as a webserver, so need every bit of juice.

Thats a pretty awesome offer of free-colo there. Nice.

I'm keeping mine at home, purely because I'm not running any high traffic sites, but free power + bandwidth is a damn sweet deal.

Demand has been insane in fairness.

I have been quite surprised by the less than epic build quality of the boards I have seen pics of tho. The soldering on some is horrific.
