5 weird things you can do with a really old SFF PC
Of all the electronic waste we generate, old computers are perhaps the most heartbreaking to discard. I've already written about plans to keep my decade-old laptop kicking for another few years using a lightweight OS, but there ought to be desktops out there bound to meet a similar fate.
