    Hi guys!

    there where some old computers at the job, they where supposed to get thrown out.. but i got 4 of them!

    i think one of them got a dual core processor.

    but the rest is hmm.. pentium 4 i think!

    and between 1-2gb's of ram!

    so.. any suggestions on what i could use them for? :D

    they all have a integrated grapichs card..

    but i was considering to install server 2008 on one of them and mabye use it as a minecraft server..

    but the catch is that there ain't no harddrives in them!

    and i only got one.. but they dosen't cost anything these days

    Keep the best one for yourself ( server or whatever ), do up the rest as Linux boxes & sell, or donate to a charity which will refurbish them & send them to a worthy cause ( under privileged children/poor south American or African village school /women's refuge etc etc ).
