A "Retired" Server Can Cure your Computer Envy:
Do you want to a $1500, $2000, $3000 computer for under $500? Are you terminally envious of the kids next door as they whip through graphics and games on the fancy machine they bought last week?

If you don't mind researching a few new things -- new, that is, to consumer users -- and you don't mind adding an operating system, you can get an extremely high-powered, high quality piece of equipment for not much money.
What can you use it for?A server or workstation is just a name for computer, and you can use most of them for any home or small business task you want, including all sorts of general computing. (Note that true servers are optimized for computation, data access and distribution. These may NOT be useful for graphics or multimedia, especially if they are unde...
