What can I make with a 1.5ghz Socket 478 Pentium4? Looking for new project ideas
So I was just handed an old socket 478 Socket Pentium4 @ 1.5ghz.
At first I thought, ohhhh, another rig to build and suckle on my electric bill. But then I realized that I made a commitment to get rid of old parts and not pack-rat everything.
That's where I need a project. You see, these chips old go for $15.00 on Ebay, and I will sell it for like $9-10 dollars otherwise, but I would love to make it the center of say, an ITX based router board running linux, or a media box in the the media cabinet that pushes the sound between the receiver and the computer (Think of Linksys's media center devices)
What ideas do you have? To keep this realistic, lets call the budget at $150.00 and try and use ebay where possible.
Any ideas TFP'ers, or just sell it for a ten spot?
