What should I do with my old computer?

After I get my finances in order I'm going to build a new computer. I'm not sure what I should do with the old one, though. It's a prebuilt one and I'm not sure what all the specs are, but here's what I do know: GPU: Geforce 7800 GSProcessor: Intel Pentium 4 3.4 Ghz1 GB RAMI dunno if it would be worth anything to anybody. What should I do with my old computer?
burn it !!! lol, no seriously make a donation to a school or something, or you can try to sell itWhat should I do with my old computer?
Donate it, give it to a family member? Setup Folding@Home? Get a few bucks for it on craigs list?
Well, I wanted to know if it would be worth anything in terms of $$$ -- you know, an estimate kinda. But eh, maybe I'll see if my girlfriend's family wants it.
Eh someone would buy it for like $250 - $350
Yeah, you could get around $300 for that. It's not a bad setup at all. Only bad thing really is it's a single core.
Okay, sounds like a good deal. I might replace the 70 GB HD with a 160 GB one; does that sound like a good idea?
Yeah not a bad computer.
Certainly for a media center PC and 1 year old games it gets the job done well.
Do not give away your Harddrive. Destroy it.
Otherwise someone like me will pick it up and go through it with a toothpick just for kicks. And it wont matter that you formatted it either

yeah you can get around 300$ and 700$ if you find a pigeon :) like dell they sell stuff that worth 30$ at 200$ :)
it damn true about what worth 30$ At 200$
for more information : newegg 30$ 2GB 800mhz DDR2 desktop memory VS : 200$ :For 2GB 667mhz DDR2 Desktop memory at dell.com
Home server!
lol. send me your graphics card, if you dont mind please. :)
Not a bad system sell it or donate it to your local high school I'm sure they could probaly use it. Or keep it as a backup just incase if any of your new parts brakes down on ya and you have to wait for the replacement like I had too for my cpu fan =( but its up and running.

[/QUOTE]Haha, don't worry, I know. :D That's why I was going to put in a new hard drive, and for the old one, well, there's a hammer in my room that I've always wanted to put to good use. I will probably keep this computer around for a while as a backup. Hopefully in the meantime I will find a buyer/some use for it. Thanks for all the tips.
[QUOTE=''albi321'']Home server![/QUOTE]Gotta agree, run a dedicated home server, file storage, Vent/Team Speak server, dedicated host for gaming etc...
honestly, setup folding @ home and leave it running 24/7, or use it as a htpc
Fodling @ home it a nice thing
i do that with world community grid supporting a part of the same project both are big i help cancer fight mostly %26 AIDS
and did once the rice thing for help people i guess i hope people does that and it do increase really signfiant our technology
as they keep say it fun to growth technology in theory it say if we ad 20 million computer instead of 1-2 million
our technology would growth about 8x faster XD then now
according those we made them save of current: system power : Age about 5,000 year of research per month lol

old comp can still help
sell it, sureley someone will give you something decent for it
Well, do you want to help people
Make money
or do some useless crap that will leave you amazed?

Things you COULD do.

Install linux, set it up so every....20 minutes the webcam takes a picture, and at the same time compiles the pictures into a movie, put it by a window/door, forget about it for a few years.

Turn into a fish tank.

Use it as a media/game server for friends.

I've got more suggestions if you'd like :P
