My experience is that old computers tend to have a negative value these
days -- no one will buy them and you often have to pay a computer
recycler to accept them.
So, the question is, can you put together an HD-capable MythTV system
for $240? (For that matter, where I live electricity is $0.10/kWh, so
I'd have to do it for $120.)
