What to do with a Thin Client

[essexboyracer]

Hi All, I am a new owner of an HP T5725 Thin Client, 512MB CF and 256MB Ram, eth0, 6xusb etc, etc. I have already managed to get Puppy and Slitaz installed on it but what's the point in having another piece of desktop hardware sitting around? As it is always connected to the interwebz i thought there must be a more creative use for it

What do you reckon would be the best use for this little machine? Perhaps something marginally subversive.

Put windows XP on it and use it to run Magic Jack.

UK based, but the new panasonic phones I have didnt come with an ansafone...

Run DOS on it,

Lotus 1-2-3 is 114k
Workperfect is 300k
AutoCAD is 1100k

All run in 640k of RAM.

Create a RAMDISK, and load all programs into it.

It will probably be faster than any modern computer.

Run a Tor relay on it ? Set it up, plug it in, and let it run.
