Mongrel

A new local computer shop had a few reasonably priced second-hand motherboards, which I just couldn't resist getting.  After buying one and making Giggles (on the previous page), and seeing as it went fairly smoothly, I couldn't resist grabbing another—they had two of the same motherboards—and making another PC up (this one).  Along the way of building the both of them I'd grabbed various extra bits and pieces, which left me with some other usable parts to make into yet another computer, Peanuts (on the next page).

Mongrel uses Fedora Core Linux exclusively (no dual-booting), and has a 500 MHz Celeron CPU, 192 megs of RAM, on-board sound and video, CD-RW burner, and an old 14 inch VDU.
