I've got an old eeePC 701 that I stopped to use and was replaced with a tablet for its previous use.

Now I've got an eeePC sitting here and doing nothing...

Any interesting idea on what to do with it?
 
Use it to mirror repo.openpandora.org so you've got all the Pandora software locally that you might need.
 
Donate it, there are many kids that could really use even an old computer.

If you repurpose it for anything it'll just be idly consuming power doing something that your desktop is more than capable of doing without waste, I'm sure.
 
too bad, at the point, all the proposal are either covered by other devices or not really needed/interesting me... and I'm afraid WizardStan is right... no other ideas? :D

I have one, but that's only as a learning exercise.

I have a similar config as yours and I'm not using my netbook anymore, and I plan to use it as a test machine to try to setup archlinux from scratch (i would not do that on my main machine at this stage).
