It takes 10 times more machine to create anything than it does to serve it. It would easily be more ISP than you will ever need. And probably handle a couple dozen of your friends also. Unlimited web, unlimited email, personal IRC server, game host, whatever.

Well I have scavanged 4 PC's today. The two Pentium II 400's are now officially both dead. I parted them out. I don't know what killed my first PII, nor do I know why the second one chose today to toss in the towel.

Any ways, the CPU's, SDRam, HD's, CDRoms, and Floppy's all seem to be good. The MB's I think are not well although I cannot be sure.

So I have all these parts, and no idea what to do with them.

Have any of you ever seen a Quantum Bigfoot 5.25 Series Hard Drive? It is one big solid HD. Its twice the size of a normal drive and very heavy.

Its also for sale.
