Well, there are some things you should know:

  • It has no sound capability.
  • It has only a few (maybe 8) MB of video memory, so Aero or any graphic-intensive activity will not be possible.
  • It does not support add-in graphics ... you might be able to find something that will work, but it will be VERY hit/miss.
  • It may be fitted with a RAID controller.  If so, you will need to load drivers for it during the Windows install.
  • There is a very good chance that your processor is 32-bit only.
  • Drivers will not exist for some devices; you might be able to use Server 2008x86 drivers for some devices, including the RAID controller.

What do you plan to do with it?
