How do y'all suggest I put to good use the increasing number of extra
computers I have lying around my house?

You would think I was starting a computer museum with the number of
decommissioned computers I have at home. A few Macintoshes and a couple
of
Intel-based machines. (Not to mention the TI-99A, or whatever.) I don't
really need backup. I don't really need a Web server. Maybe I could use
these computers as some sort of CPU Farm to do some sort of interesting
computing.

Any suggestions?

One possibility would be to find somewhere to donate them.  Many cities
have non-profits that recycle computers to low-income families and
provide training.
