One of the main reasons why BSD rocks is that it runs amazingly well on old hardware. At craigslist, I can get MB with CPUs for like 20$ and these are just a year old hardware that still can perform pretty good with a good kernel tweak. I'm tempted to make my own clustering setup with all these cheap mb, cpus, etc at cragislist. Setup a redundant firewall setup with openbsd. Or web clustering setup for virtual hosting with freebsd. The choices are endless. BSD works amazing with all this. Take advantage of all the computers people don't need and build your own frankenstein monster powered by BSD!
