After upgrading my old PC and fixing my Mum’s with the some of the redundant parts I now have everything I need to make another (all I really need is a CD/DVD reader but it is not essential). The only problem with the machine is that the on-board graphics card does not work correctly but that is not really a problem. The processor is only a AMD Athlon 1.3Ghz but it is enough to install Fedora Core (a distribution of Linux) and use it as a test server for some of my sites and a general file server. It may even become the router for my home network depending if I can get hold of enough NICs. I will keep you updated!
