like the title states,i have a spare pc lying around which happens to work great still.

its my old trusty rig

AMD Sempron 2800+ 2GHZ
1.25Gb ram
120GB Hard drive
Radeon 9600 pro 256mb
Windows Xp pro SP3

i want to make use of it,but im not sure what lol

throw me some suggestions and not one saying "Blow it up" :D
 
Turn it in to a lan server for some less decent games like day of defeat or something like that :D. You can have big bot battles if you have a separate LAN server. Also you could use it as storage for your LAN.
 
A LAN server would be pretty cool, or possibly get another hard drive and store a bunch of multimedia files on it?
 
strip it butt naked. get it working with some proggies. i did. its a laptop i use for business now. online credit cards, paypal and checking account. nothing else. just business.
 
I to have a machine laying around my Dell "Demonsion" M-80, But I think I'm going to sell it to my friend. Gotta pay of my credit card bill..:(
 
File/Media server

and Learn to use Linux!!!!!!! just make sure you keep your data on a separate drive so if you crash it your data is good to go.

1) YOU MUST BACK UP YOUR DATA!!!!!!

2) It would be a great way to learn Linux
