I'll second Ken on that one!
<br />
<br />I've got a whole stack of older Xeon servers - most were donated to me at no $$. I've retired four of them after years of running BlueQuartz and BlueOnyx, because faster machines with more memory and drives were available. Why in the world would anyone want to spend the massive amount of time involved with getting BlueOnyx running on that antique hardware?
<br />
<br />Now, if you've got the spare time and just want to take it on as a bragging right project - have fun! But you have to realize that most of the members of this list don't have that kind of spare time - and just won't waste what time they have on a "project" that won't go anywhere in the future....

<br />> If I can ask, why would you want to put that much work into repurposing
<br />>
outdated hardware? There are inexpensive ATOM and i3 devices today, or 2-3
<br />>
year old used servers, that would allow a straightforward standard install
<br />>
of BlueOnyx, and would outperform the Qube.
<br />>
<br />>
I have tons of old hardware, including some very nice HP/Compaq servers, as
<br />>
well as some RaQ550 and Tyan servers that used to run Cobalt or BlueQuartz
<br />>
software. Every time I try to convince myself to reload them and put them
<br />>
back in service, it just doesn't make sense. They are going to the
<br />>
recycler.
