I mean, it can be fun to tinker regardless. I have a shitty Dell Inspiron from 2012 that I run Linux in CLI-only mode just for fun.
In fact it used to run my entire smart home, run long-running background tasks (like syncing huge files from an NFS share to Storj); hell at one point it was bringing in passive income as I rented out hard disk space.
I bought a Rabbit R1 for half off used on eBay, but only after I learned you can install full Android on it.
Why? Its hardware is dog shit.
