What to do with my creations

[Ati]

Hey,

The other week i was practicing building some compuers so i found some scraps here and there and manadged to build:

2 of these

p4
128mb ram
2x20gig HDDs
Vanta 16mb GFX cards (yes 16mb )

No idea what i can do with them they'r just sitting in my room, i was thinking of seeding torrents off them but having the stupid 2 meg down and 256k up i think its not such a good idea.

Anyone got any good ideas as to how i can use them? Or should i sell them (i need 236 £ to build one of these from new got two flat panel monitors aswell hehe)

Best open them with firefox so you can read but will type out specs aswell

MSI S754 VIA K8M800 MATX A L
AMD Sempron 3000+ S754 128KB Box Inc Fan
Kingston ValueRAM 256MB 184Pin DIMM PC2100 DDR RAM Non-Parity CL2 x2
Maxtor DiamondMax10 80GB U133
Philips DVD+-R/RW DL 16x IDE BLACK OEM
Sapphire Technology Radeon 9250 64 Bit 128MB AGP DVI-I VO
DabsValue Midi Tower 400W Silent Black

Total : £236.70p

Will run DAoC without too many problems and will probably upgrade to a 1gig chip instead of the 512 ram for a clean run, hopefully i can also sell a few of these on!

thanks for looking

John

Your selling them for the price it will cost for new ones? - I take it the parts you made them from was used as well?
Then add the missing shipping info on top, which will be quite expensive alone :>

You could set up a SQL, Tomcat, Apache, CVS, CSS etc. server on them :x

Awesome, what are the pros and cons to those, and what exactly are they?

If you don't need/know what they are, then don't set them up.

Silly to do it just for the sake of it
