Wow, why would people have these good old processors in the closet? I still
have a K6-2/450 and an AthlonXP 1700+ in running machines here. The kids play
games and surf the net on the K6-2/450 -- it's not fast, but really, the
neopets website isn't improved by a faster processor. Of course my intel 486
dx2 is in the closet -- waiting for an optimal moment to go on Ebay ;-)
BTW, if you have old computer equipment that is gathering dust in a closet
please consider donating to azstrut:
