I'm slowly getting tired of all this old hardware lying around doing nothing, being broken in some way or another.  I initially got rid of anything that only took AT power.  I now am tempted to get rid of anything older than my Athlon XP rig, and start from there.

My next computer, the next tygris, will be 64 bits.  The old tygris will become cynthia and run Win2k natively.  redwolf I feel needs a new backup RAM battery.  I'm posting from sandra now, and one of these days I'll build occlan from a VIA Eden board and put it into a Sparc ITX case I have.

Infact, I should price it out now.   (Prices through damnsmalllinux.org's store)
$118 - EPiA 800 ($106 if I go through eWiz).
$46 - Power supply (PW 60A)
$40 - 12v, 9w power adapter brick

I recently purged out anything older than a P2/300, and I'll be down to only a single P2/300 sometime later this year. I don't really have any immediate plans to replace that system (Kaolla) because it's doing its job just fine as a replacement for Ruri on all my network maintenance tasks. (dhcpd, nmbd, bind, etc.)

I am going to be ditching the other P2/300 this year for a hacked together celeron 2.4, and my Athlon 850 will be replaced by a Athlon 64 sooner or later.

I have a VIA EPIA-V board here. It's nice but darn sluggish. What were you planning on using occlan for?
