1) Find a lot of 10 Thinkpad T400s on ebay for cheap (in this case I got 10 for like 380+shipping).
2) Install Linux on all of them (went with Fedora 30, it really does have a smooth power button to desktop experience).
3) Find some Linux games that'll play on Intel GPU / Core 2 Duo.
4) Profit???
5) Have some drinks with your buddies! (at least if there is spillage on a laptop, it cost less than 40 bucks.)
Just need some help with part 3. Anyone got some good ideas for LAN games? I need to test to see if I can play NWN:EE, but I'm sure I could use Wine and play Diablo, though I think that maxes at 4 players.
Sorry for all the missing awesomeness.
Project is coming along. Ordered 10x 4GB sticks (so it'll bring them up to 6GB of RAM, though Linux (tried Fedora 30 and Debian 10) run perfectly fine with Gnome on these systems, if I ever want to do Windows 7 it's horrendously slow at 2gb of RAM) and also ordered 10x 240GB SSDs, which should speed these up tremendously!
Gonna do some testing in the next few days to see how they perform with some gaming. I did find that they sent only 4 of the correct power supplies, and I also found someone selling Docks for all of them (5 bucks each!) so may get those as well. Though that only really gives me parallel / serial ports.
This is going to be fun. Once I get a good image / setup on one of them, I plan on cloning it and then using clonezilla to make them all the same.
Some more possibilities: Alien Arena, Cube 2: Sauerbraten, OpenArena.
