I have a really....really.....realllly old PC. Its a 150 mhz Gateway w/ 32 MB RAM, and 2 GB Hard Drive. :lol: . I want to do something w/ it, but i dont know what. It'll get a max of...3 bucks trying to sell it, so thats not an option. I was considering smooth walling, but i dont have high speed internet. Any ideas?

prey on the stupid and advertise it as a top spec machine and dishwater combo with an included coffee cup holder and beer mat holder

play about with linux on it, and have it as a basic surfing machine or something, keep folks of your pc for basic stuff.

Some folks use the old PC as a Firewall, you know,
install some Linux based firewall and put it between the LAN and the intarweb,
or something.

I dont know the details but that's probably what I would try to do.

WTF is "smooth walling"?
I have seen the term before but have no clue what it describes.
