Hey,
my dad has replaced the old PC i gave him about 5 years ago that i picked up nearly 10 years ago so its back with me and i would like to do something with it but i don't know what.
it was never a beast for its time and it currently stands with 4GB DDR2 (i think) AMD phenom 8650 triple core 2.3Ghz processor and an NVidia 210 (formally 8800GT but it died) running Vista
i know its far from great but i no longer have a desktop PC after moving we picked up a laptop thats now been exchanged for a windows 10 tablet/laptop hybrid.
im torn between sitting it near the living room TV and using it as a basic media/internet box but it seems there are much better options for that that would be much cheaper and possibly more reliable to run, the other thought was an old school gaming unit but would this really be much better then a rasberry pi with retropi installed?
any suggestions or would i be best scrapping/selling it (for what £20?) or could i actually get something fun out of its existence.
