NO PURPOSE FOR THE 32MB CF CARD, IT IS ONLY OTHER PRODUCT SAMPLE.

Just for reference, something like this could be quite useful if you're trying to run something along the lines of m0n0wall on a generic PC, but would like to reduce heat, power consumption, noise, and common points of failure.

True. I think it is a good/clever idea however I think the amount of people actually utilizing those would be very slim even if it was a 16GB compact flash card. Especially with the growing popularity of USB drives.
