My college did this with Pentium 133mhz. It was interesting but a waste of time IMHO.

My manager informed me that more Linux applications and training are likely in our department's future. If I write a proposal highlighting the cost savings over Dell machines, maybe we'll see a PS2 in everyone's cubicle.
If nothing else, our office would be the most popular hangout in the building.
