It has to be still in daily use to qualify.

I just retired a PII 450 and a PIII 700. So now my slowest is a P4 1.5

one of my customers just upgraded thier server about a month ago... they run a unix, text based enviroment with 20 users on their self-developed software. They were still on a 386 with a 500 meg HD (which was an upgrade about 2 years ago b/c I couldn't find a 200 meg drive). All of the machines connecting to this old beast were dummy terminals. They kept 15 dummy terminals on their new system, but now have a new server and 5 new workstations.... which increased their computing power about ten thousand percent.

I'm sure glad they upgraded b/c I didn't know how I was going to find parts for that old klunker.
