I think at this point it'd be far more expensive to find/assemble compatible parts for a machine that slow and old. most phones havemore processing power, memory, (s)hdd space, and use less power than 486 era machines ever dreamed of having.

in short, you can build this slower machine but it'll cost you more than just buying a low end modern rig.
