Restore them with a minimal Linux distro, strip it down and fit it into a smaller case. That would make a decent HTPC if you host your content elsewhere.

Bring them to the nearest e-waste site for proper disposal

what were you doing in someone else's trash

Install windows 10, sell it for $50 each to locals.

>strip it down and fit it into a smaller case.
Don't most of those older Dells use proprietary motherboard sizes?

I have an optiplex gx620 sff that I put gentoo on. Runs alright, I use it to test my website

throw it back in the trash

>replace HDD
>make comfy home server

turn it into a router

Learn docker

Shit, I forgot about that.

If you're feeling adventurous, you can upgrade them with 4-core xeons from aliexpress (modded BIOS: bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-OptiPlex-360-380-760-780-960-Xeon-LGA-771-E0-1067A-Microcode ), SSD and maybe 8GB RAM (can be tricky since Intel boards can't use cheap high-density Chinese modules), they will make somewhat sluggish but usable web browsing machines.

They got 98 drivers? Making a win 98 lan party setup if they do

I need some nodes for testing k8 cluster stuff. I'd take them home.

360 degrees and walk away

hold on to them for 10 years, then put them up on eBay for $1500 a piece for gen-z retroomers that are nostalgic for their pentiums and Windows sevens.

Right
