Just wondering if anyone reuses old CPU/systems. I still have a complete set of Pentium II 223 and its board and parts, as well as a complete set of Athlon XP-M "Barton" with its Socket A board. I have lots of fond memory using them: all those nights of college papers on the Pentium II, and the fun overclocking experiments done on the Barton. I haven't fired up either for quite a few years, but I can't seem to find a good use for them, other than them taking up space. I wouldn't mind having a server or HTPC type rig, but neither could do much for modern computing.
So do you all just keep your old rigs sitting in the basement? Or what else is there to do something with them?
