Strengths: Compact design, Firewire, USB 2, Ethernet, etc...
Weaknesses: Power supply could be a tad stronger?
Summary: The Shuttle SK41G is an awesome box for the price. I purchase one about a year ago that has become my dedicated web server for the small personal sites that I dabble with. Most recently, I purchased a second refurbished unit for a gift for my in-laws. They are very happy about having a new computer. Since you can find 120GB drives for $59, and a 256mb PC2700 stick of ram for $19 (these are after rebates...) you can build a complete system for really cheap! My inlaw's 2Ghz system cost me $272, not including the monitor, or keyboard of course... It included a 120GB WD 7200 drive, AMD 2Ghz CPU, 256mb PC2700, and a CD-RW!
What is awesome about these units are that everything you need (for the average user) is contained in one small solution, and integrated into the motherboard. From Capturing video with the 1394 (firewire) to hooking up a scanner to the USB2 port, to plugging into your network, you can do it all!
