Every linux box (i have 4 on the go at the moment!) have been built from left over parts supplemented by whatever missing bits I could scrounge cheaply online. That's one of the fun parts of those projects getting the best bang for buck with your old components.
Building a Linux box
- Thread starter Ice Tea
- Start date
Installed Ubuntu on a circa 2016/2017 Dell XPS laptop and has given it a fresh new life. I bought it 2nd hand but might try and replace the battery to get it running even better.
Even an old 2nd hand laptop works great, really depends if you have anything spare or what budget you have to use.
