It's not particularly useful because it's mostly just links to post your support requests on the forum for now, but it helps give new users an idea of what is available. Also we have had quite a few users buy a VPS, not read the part about emailing them, and then expect to be able to log in immediately. With the VPS dashboard they can log in immediately like they expect to be able to and it shows them that their build is still in progress which reduces the confusion and support requests.
