What you gotta do is go to big office buildings, companies throw out old computers by the boatload. I once found 15 old p3 based computers. I could only carry 4 :cool:

(they are tiny little dells)

I got two PIII machines, three PII machines, and a rather nice NEC laser printer from the hospital my mom works at. They were just sitting around and the tech guys didn't know what to do with them. So I took them off their hands. They were going to throw away the laser printer because it was sucking up multiple sheets of paper. I cleaned it out and now it works great!

I beefed up one of the PIIIs and now use it to fold, and for remote file storage and backup. I rather like the old beast.
