I have an old Compaq Presario 700 with 256MB ram running Acronis OS
Selector wrapped around quadruple-boot Ubuntu 8.04, FreeBSD 7.0, Vista
SP1 and XP SP2. Not fast when booted from Vista but it works and it was
a challenge to get it going. Interestingly, when Vista is running, it
only uses 170MB.
That's what I do with my outdated equipment...

Let's get off of this Vista bashing... Not that I don't like taking a
few wacks at Vista... but beating a dead horse won't make it run
faster.
So I have a question for the list: What do you do with outdated
equipment?
When that Pentium II 266 just doesn't run the software like you need
it too anymore, What are your options?
Since we're a school, our policy is decided by committee... Which
means we recycle. And pay by the pound for it.
