I'm looking to build a machine that I can copy my entire DVD collection to and hook up to the TV, so that I'll have all of them readily available instead of having to repeatedly grab and return them to the shelf. Yeah, I know, I'm going to need a shitload of hard drive space, but I don't need a very powerful machine otherwise.
I was wishing I had held onto the Athlon XP 2000 that I gave away to a friend who sorely needed her machine upgraded, but figured I'd be able to get another one like it for cheap. Hmm, Newegg doesn't have anything less than an Athlon 64 these days, so I figured I'd stop by the local shop that has all kinds of stuff, both old and new. I looked at the processor list and saw they had really, really old ones for a few bucks. But to get another one like I had would be around $100. I could get a new low-end processor and motherboard for that. Oh well...
