^^ lol @ fly-swatter & sibling

You're probably gonna make gamehead200 mad tho with that list...

[gamehead200]

I guess there are a few things you could try doing with it. You could:

Use it as a picture frame thing

Use it in a vegetable-oil-cooling test

Use it as a hat

Use it as a horse-cleaner

Use it as a coffee dispenser

Use it as a dictatorship sitter

Use it as a banana obfuscator

Use it as a lamp

Use it as a sibling

Use it as a timed can-opener

Use it as a rotary internal combustion engine house

Use it as a fly-swatter

Use it as a mailman pincher

Use it as a nose sweeper

Use it as a stock market

Use it as a fish-jumper

Use it as a snow cone

Use it as a traffic jam

Use it as a having

Use it as a tree-sniffer

Use it as a cesium purifier

Use it as a song eater

Use it as a treatise on punctuation

Use it as a classical poet

Use it as a rice-cooker

Use it as a Christmas tree

Use it as a mini-chef

Use it as a sponge critic

Use it as a doom house

etc.

Cheers

Yeah, I saw that one too...

But I don't really want to submerge anything in oil... Too greasy...

Oil is an insulator not a conductor of electricity.

My bad...

OK, guys, quit fooling around with oil computers...

What can I do with this **** laptop!?

NNTP server, IRC server, Mail server...?

how about using your laptop as a remote access terminal so you can control your other computers from other parts of your house. Or maybe just use it for surfing. Hell, you could have it in your bathroom and check out msfn while having a crap

Already use my iBook for that!

I would use it for storage with linux os for utilities. I would 1st upgrade to 128 MB ram. You can use ubcd programs and others with it.

[gamehead200]

I doubt I can even upgrade it...

I've been trying to get FreeBSD on it for a while with no luck... The CD can never boot...

You might need a boot floppy.

IS this your model? http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.asp...120LT&submit=Go

I tried the boot floppy, but strangely enough, every time I inserted the second floppy, the laptop would shut off...

It is a NEC Versa 6050!

Ouch 64 MB topps at kingston in the discontinued model section. Toss it.

Not even listed at crucial.

[gamehead200]

Heh... I've decided to use it as a simple web server and call it the GarageTop... Just a useless laptop running in my garage with a web server...

Kind of useless, but its running with Windows 98 with 75% of the resources free!

Good luck. Let us know how it goes.
