ridiculous project (expect stupidity)

my sister kept complaining to me about having a slow computer (233 mhz p2) and wanted me to either 1. build her a new one with all the old parts i have 2. let her use mine. well seeing as how she puts spyware on her computer all the time with the sites she visits, i didn't want her within a mile of my system (it has enough problems as it is, lol) so i figured i would not just build her a computer, i will do something slightly off-the-wall instead. take a 1 ghz p3 chip that was lying around and connect it to the strips on the p2 slot using stripped twisties, lol (i did warn her that it will probably not work and in the event i kill it then she'll use the old amd computer i put together)
