What can I do with 15 old computers?

But I have a router already, and more than one router on a small network is not a good idea.

 

_I was going to suggest an Acquarium but I see TheRosesAreFree beat me to it.

 

I'm talking lots of small routers for a rainy day, not for common use, or you can use them as gateways or all sorts of other low sys req machines (only e-mail, a sound only machine w\ a killer sound card, shit like that) hell, devote one to old dos games, emulators, fill them with absurd stuff that you don't want to put on your normal computer, make a print server

 

Hahaha, yeah, fish tanks rock man!

 

network them and program them to repeatedly play risk against each other, giving them all their own names and strategies and see which one is able to conquer the others most often


i suggest dressing them up in military costumes as well

 

migu pwns.....

 

THat was my first thought. but thats alot of fun real quick.

turning them into a crayzee ass home network would be cool.

more evenly distributed fun over long period of time

plus you dont have a huge mess to clean up.

 

One word: Linux

You can never have to many Linux boxs.

 

If you can connect the pentiums to DSL or cable internet, you can run your own internet cafe. Charge a buck for thirty minutes online, or two dollars for an hour.

 

Beowulf!

 

strap razors to them and make them fight.

 

hmmm 15 old computers...
you my son, need either a shotgun or an automatic, high powered rifle of some kind

 

Donate them to schools/computer for school organizations? Or simply break them.

 

beowolf cluster time!
You could also go 'office space' on them

 

Ebay

 

start a museum ...

 

cannibalize the systems or just try to sell them at ebay but keep a cool lets say 286 or 386 with a monochrome screen.... just kiddin realy like the 386 though...

 

n00b question..."beowolf?"
/i know what the poem is, but not in relation to 15 computers


and if you do go all office space on them, i'm pretty sure you're required by law to videotape it and post it for all to see

 

each of them has about 40 bucks worth of precious metals in em. melt em down and buy some pot.

 

find old dos games and run them on the old computer
