You still can't.

I got the feeling he was a normie and that was a normie-friendly suggestion, that's all really.

I would probably hook it up in my living room and have mutt, mpd+ncmpcpp, irssi, etc. running on it. Of course, if it's old enough it might be weaker than a raspberry pi and more power hungry, so maybe it's not worth doing much with.

btw, if you're serious about selling it, your best chance is going to be as a gaming platform. you can get this perfectly for free through virtualbox and passthrough drivers but hardware shits insist it won't be the same, because it isn't shitty and bad. You need to advertise these and touch on both of them.

example
>virtualbox sucks! Play it on real hardware to get the TRUE experience! 100% "muh feel" compatible. Best results when you pair this with your piece of shit CRT that I know you have.

hardest part of this is going to be its weight but hipsters will pay. get a quote by weight to know what you're in for. cheapest is going to be usps. you could also transfer everything inside to a plastic case if you had one lying around and it was all at/x standard
