I have wanted to try one, and so has a friend of mine, for a while.  The 
most likely project I'll have for it is controlling fuel only on a 500 
cadillac I'm putting in my 85 caprice project car this summer.  The car was 
originally fuel injected so I already have a sending unit with fuel pump and 
all the lines I need.

Intend to replumb the chassis for fuel injection even though I'll be running 
it as carbureted for now.  If I can get a large enough throttle body and 
injectors cheap enough I might try to put something together next winter. 
Poor college student now with too many other projects that have higher 
priority then this.

There was also a guy on this list, or maybe it was gm_ecm, that was running 
one said he liked it.  The only downside is to get that cheap price you have 
to put it together, or pay another 100 or whatever to get one pre-assembled.

Still it's really not bad price wise, probably the next step up while still 
being reasonable in cost would be performance electronics ECU.  Mostly I 
think Formula SAE teams use them (mini F1 style race cars built by college 
students).  About $800 a pop.
