Mods: I'm not sure where this belongs so please feel free to move. This was the best place I could come up with.
OK, here's the deal: I picked up a new top of the line MacBook Air last week because I got tired of traveling every week with the late 2009 15" MBP I have. The thing is, there's nothing wrong with the MBP at all. It was the most upgraded model I could buy when I picked it up in 2009. Therefore I do not want to get rid of it. I can use it in a variety of ways including for just general family use if needed. That said, I would prefer to use it in the best way possible. My thought is that I can put Lion Server on it and turn it into something useful for me.
What would you set up on that machine? Anything special that I could set up that would be an advantage given that I travel every week (I'll assume a VPN is a must)? You can assume that my experience level is high and that I'm capable of figuring out how to setup whatever is required.
