What to do with a little £20 PC? Bought on a whim..

[BrandX]

Well, £27 including postage. I've always wanted a small-form PC so I bought this one on eBay just to mess around with and then I'll sell it on or give it away. It's just a toy. But what can I really do with it apart from use it as a door-stop? I suppose that's why it was £20.

It does come with a Windows 7 license..

I would personally keep it as a Linux machine to play with. You can use it to get used to operating in a command line interface or just get some Linux experience.

If you are comfortable with Linux and have no need for it, throw it out a window...yo.

Could load Linux and an external make a little file server out of it. Might consider upgrading it to windows 10 now to go ahead and secure a free license for it, that way if you decide the Linux thing won't work, you can always put 10 back on it.
