I know what you mean.
These are the marvels and pardoxes of technical improvement and research

I have some old computers alone in a room that I trying to resurrect, I want to make a cluster and then a personal server, but every time I try to install an OS there's a problem, last time it was a broken drive. Nowadays, it's very difficult to use old things with the new ones
