you will likely be able to root it and then install a custom rom. I would check xda for that. You could use it fir lots of things: A media server, fine server, run a minecraft pocket server you could even run your own webserver or make a tor website.

 

android is getting pretty powerful you can do a large number of things.

Maybe a steam link? Using steam os and just stream it all from your gaming PC?
