Huh! I've recently been reading a blog/site with similar thoughts - the
guy likes to rescue old hardware and make it useful.
His focus is on proving old hardware can be completely functional, and I
believe he did an "X-free week", or something similar, so showcase
console apps which can do anything X can do.
Regardless, you all might enjoy some of the resources on his site.
