Going somewhat off topic:
For the longest time I was writing scripts using a P133. If you just work with code 99% of the time you really don't need heavy processing. Right now I got a P3 500 with 128 RAM running Debian as my main computer. It does everything I need and seems very fast to me. If a Linux user chooses the right apps a sub par computer will run quite nicely. Of course, working with video would be a different matter. Yet, if a Linux user makes an effort to avoid bloat s/he could have a productive workstation with very little.

Windows XP to install on all of them.

Quite slow.

I'm sure they are running like garbage.
