Use the c64 for an intelligent 64K printer spooler.  If you wanted to do
data compression, it would hold even more than 64K of text.  

Use the c64 as a data compressor and communication processor.  With suitable
encoding and decoding on either end, you can get almost 2400 baud
performance out of a 1200 baud line.

Use the c64 as a debugging terminal connected to WACK and the amiga serial port.

Use the c64 as a bookrest to hold up your amiga manuals.
