What can be done with older machines? I have some unused 486 and Pentium
machines (up to the Pentium 200-300 range, I think) , and some cases
thereof. At one point all (the machines, not the cases) ran, but by now
hard drives may have been cannibalized to be used elsewhere.
My network is fine; I don't need a firewall or router. In fact, two of
these machines _used_ to be the house router, but when I "needed" 802.11, it
was easier to get a COTS router than buy the parts and make Linux cooperate
(a decision I've regretted several times).
