Well I recently aquired a Packard Bell computer, model: A950-TWR. I haven't booted it up yet, but it should have a Pentium 166 cpu, 16MB (simm) memory, and a 1.6GB Maxtor hard drive. It's the typical Packard Bell machine using a NLX form factor. I know I could fix it, and clean it up, and have a brand new looking Packard Bell 166Mhz computer. However, I have absolutely no use for it. I hate to throw it away, and even if I did fix it, I don't know what one would use it for besides maybe a linux based router. The question, should I rebuild this machine? Does anyone on these forums have a use for such a machine. Can anyone on these forums think of any uses for this machine. Next up is a Pentium 2/3 machine. That comes later.
