I don't have anything at the moment... but in a couple of months I'm going to have an Abit BP-6 motherboard which is the only motherboard made to handle dual Celerons. These are the 2nd generation of Celerons that were just about as good as Pentium2's, which is why Intel later crippled them. Anyway, it will take up to 533MHz celerons, and 466MHz ones can be had for around $10-12 around the net. It also has a second set of IDE sockets that are ATA/66. When the time comes, I'll probably also have 256MB of ram to go with the board... also the old CPU's, but they are 366's and for the cheapness of the 533's, you might as well through new ones in.

Anyway... makes for a nice little SMP setup.

Should I post when it's freed up?  Anyone interested?

Joe

If anyone else has an older machine (say, maybe ~1Ghz or so) they are
looking to get rid of, I'm looking for one.  My little server machine
toasted its motherboard and since I don't know if it's the CPU, power
supply, or mobo that's ultimately to blame, I'm just looking to replace the
whole thing.

I'm willing to pay $50-$75 or so, depending on what's under the hood.
