My basement is like a mortuary with the remains of computers all lying in state, waiting and hoping for a new lease on life. But what is there to do with the K6s, the Celerons, and Pentiums of the past. It seems nothing short of a miracle would bring these ghosts back to life.

I sit here typing on the console of my p133 w/32mb ram and a 2gb drive, running debian with a 2.6 kernel, which is acting as a gateway for my network to my adsl, running firewall/QoS/ftp. It cost me $5 from a guy who had it sitting around. I added a network card, and put the hdd in a computer with a cd drive (the p133 motherboard doesn't support cd drives!), installing deb, made a nice small kernel with everything i needed, stuck the drive back into the p133 and never looked back. Old hardware is still really useful.
