I use my MacMiniG4 for:
- ssh server to outside (ppc32 is uncommon so it gives me impression
of improved security).
- git server
- build+test robot for big endian compilation+testing.

I used it in the past for running minidlna but I had to give up mainly
because of bug #774149 (using kodi with a dedicated RPi3B+ now)

Obviously this may not fit a laptop goal.
