Failing hardware

I have an old box i want to put ubuntu server on. its specs are 466mhx p3 w/ 128mg ram

but the hardware is fucked. I have a 20 gig hhd but one of the pins is snapped off, i tried soldering back on but meh

Is it worth fixing it? should i buy a second hand hhd? I already have a server i can play with that 266mhz+4gig hhd, but its slow.

>>266mhz+4gig hhd, but its slow.

oh, really?  i couldn't tell.

fuck it, and go buy a flash drive for like $20 and boot off that.

a 20 gb ide will run you about the same, so it's up to you.  kind of pointless though, since the only reason you're probably even bothering with that shit is because you don't have money.  realistically, jsut look around on garbage day. there's always someone throwing away a computer.

Its not because I have no money, Its because I'll only play with it for an hour or too and go do something else

If i wanted to entertain myself for an hour I'd go see a movie or something

I was thinking about just throwing the computer away
