What to do with old computers??

I have this VERY VERY VERY VERY old computer (dont laugh, its mean, specs are: 700mhz, 254 RAM, petium 3, 62gb harddisk, fujitsu brand, win 98)

what should i do with it??

Nobody wants to buy it so pls dont suggest it.

thx in advance

There's no "Save it and use it from time to time" option.

Put linux on it and make a Linux box... I did that with a P3 450Mhz computer. Just keep older computers even if you don't use them often. :P

P3 450Mhz, 64Mb, 32MB Voodoo 2 with a copy of Win98 can run Half-life, System Shock 2, Empire Earth, Unreal Tournament, etc. upgrade the memory, over clock the processor and you can run even more.HostileEffect

what do u mean no one will buy it??? i sold one like that for $30 on ebay

Two words. Shooting range. I love blowing rounds through old computers and watching the capacitors fly!!

^Exactly. Slap a Linux distro on there (say, Xubuntu) and turn it into a file/print server and bittorrent box. Set it up right with a dynamic DNS service and SSH, and you could even make that file/print server accessible from anywhere in the world. Perfect if you travel a lot or want to set up some off-site backups for your files. ;)

I just took a golf club to my old old old pc... its quite fun.

But if you love it then the above probably isnt an option so either use it as some form of a server like people have suggested. 

Hey everyone, what if i overclock it, put a ram card, put a graphic card in........

It'll be not that slow afterwards. I found out i could overclock it to 700mhz-1ghz (at least without it blowing up)

RAM can be around 512Mb

Say.....a Geforce 7900 series will do.

And a nice new case

So, wht do u think?

put linux on it! suse10.2 if you like to learn and a good challenge.

or put ubuntu on it if your after an easy to use op system.

or run folding@home on it...... 

I got rid of two old pc's (duron,128mb ram,p3,128mb ram) in the tip a couple of weeks ago.

If they can't run windows 2000 then get rid of them seeing as windows ME and below are not supported anymore and are useless if you want to go on the net with them,from a virus threat point of view.
