Anything. What's great is that it's a computer meant to be dicked with. You fuck it up and reload from scratch. Wash, rinse, repeat.
In my opinion, just using it as a media server is kind of lame. That's what things like FireTV sticks are for.
Some things I want to try
Test the new NOOBS v. 2.0.0 + PIXEL + Whatever
Amibian (Amiga emulator distro)
Retro pie (just to see what it's like)
AcornOS
I marvel at how they packed so much power in a little computer. I would have killed for a system as powerful as the Pi3 back in 1993. It would have pwnd any computer on the planet. Even it's slow ass SD card is faster than most SCSI drives of that era.
