Nifty, have you got any plans for it?

If the CPU is still good, I've got a cooler ordered for it. If not good, I've seen Pentiums and Celerons for same socket for cheap here.

I guess end goal is a XP gaming machine, as the Matrox gpu can do basic 3D games, but should be good for stuff like Aoe2 and HoMM3. NOLF would be nice to run too. Radeon 9600 wouldnt be an excessive investment either, and thats a card that can already run HL2.

Might have to get an IDE to Sata adapter, as I dont expect its HDD being in that fresh shape. It does have a burning CDRom drive though, which is neat.

Its MB can handle 1Gb ram per slot (has 3 slots), so might put a decent amount of it, even if its slow as molasses PC133. At least that ram is cheap. Seen 256mb sticks go for less than 10bucks.

Though a fully kitted out Saseko with 3Gb ram would be funny.
