resources for computer second life
are there any resources, web sites or articles that deal with taking old or slightly old computers and making cool, unique or other uses out of them (instead of curbing or recycling them)?

or maybe someone here has some cool ideas for a computer's second life?

Sure, there's tons of stuff you can do with old computers.

I'm building an arcade machine out of my old Athlon XP box... cabinet and all.

Most people just use them as file servers, though.
