The Pi has exposed IO pins so you can use it to control just about anything that uses electricity.
There are two basic groups of users. People looking for a cheap small computer to use for education, gaming, etc. And those who use the Pi as a controller for other projects.
I'm using one as the controller for an open source coffee maker called Mugsy as well as another start up in the music education space.
