I don't know what other people do with their old hardware, because all I 
/have/ is old hardware, but if someone wants to ensure that their old junk 
doesn't go to a landfill, I would be more than happy to keep alive some 500 
mHz (or higher, of course) boards as a functional cluster (assuming I have the 
space and available power ;-). Please, send your obsolete nodes my way!

As far as your original question, however, Jeff, I don't know, but I would 
like to find out, so I can salvage some of the stuff...
