I have two of these: Pentium 90 / 8MB ram / 540 MB

I tried moving all the ram to one system, but it wouldn't start.

Would Linux even work on this thing?

anything else?

take that junk system and go to your local college, high school, or some place that will most likely have newer computers. replace all your junk components with ones from the school/college, whatever..... that or have you ever lit one on fire?

Push it on somebody in Distributed Computing as a crackbox. ;)

Actually, that would do pretty well on SETI (with more RAM). :)

Edit: If nothing else, somebody will take that HD for SETI.
