what can/would you do with 25 100 mhz computers?

[Keego]

I say you donate them, or give them to people on this board for the exact cost of shipping/boxing.

 

[Buzzman151]

hey....... I acually have a friend that has been looking for something like those, if you're wanting to part w/ them. Thnx

I'm sure it's already been posted, but:

a router and a 24 node beowulf cluster that shall work for TA until it burns up.

 

[yakko]

Donate them or go with the Beowulf cluster.

 

[BSides]

Find a used arcade cabinet and turn it into a MAME cabinet. Check here

I like your second idea

 

[Elledan]

I fourth (fifth?) the Beowulf cluster idea

 

[Modeps]

SMASH-A-THON!!!!!
REAL VIDEO!!! WEEEEE!

edit: I'm not in the video (i know many of the people though), and unfortunately its not streaming. its funny to watch some geeks with frail limbs trying to hit computers with a sledge hammer.

<< 2 serial ports? >>



thats what i was thinking
emulation for you and 24 of your closest friends

 

[IndyRacing]

Your Instructions.

 

[iamshady]

Donate em or reenact a scene from Office Space "I hate this #*^%&$#*^% fax machine!"

I To agree with the Give them up for the cost of shipping & Boxing... & it would probably be ok if you added 10 bux to it so it were worth yer time..

 

[normajean]

I just may do that. How many people here would want one? I need to check shipping. Does anyone know the best rate?

 

[ViperMagic]

id be up for one

 

[MrHelpful]

Donate them to a school, on the condition that they run RC5 or whichever for TA.

 

[Mday]

file server or print server.

you can use it as your ICS server.

 

[Jerboy]

<< any one in northerncali want some? >>




Call up the district office in your town and see if any of their schools are accepting donations.

 

[thomsbrain]

<< Your Instructions. >>



That'd probably be out of my league. But damn, it'd be cool.

 

[GigaCluster]

<< How many people here would want one? >>


I think I would.

Can you tell us any other specs other than the processor speed? Or is each machine different?

 

[normajean]

Donate them to a school

I would but I live in telecom valley...all the schools are inundated with old computers.

 

[vi edit]

They'd make great FREESCO boxes

Also, most churches/schools won't take them. There is such an influx in donated parts right now, they can afford to be choosey. A 100mhz would be be stooping low for charities.

 

[MrHappyMonkey]

<< I just may do that. How many people here would want one? I need to check shipping. Does anyone know the best rate? >>



I will take one. Can you give us some specs on the boxes? You have any monitors that go with the comps?

Thank you much.

 

[Goldfish]

What is a beowulf cluster?

 

[TheNemesis]

I'd be interested in one.

 

[Blayze]

I might be interested in one depending on cost...

what are the specs of these machines?
