Yeah, my Linux desktop PC is five years old and definitely wasn't cutting edge when I built it, and I can't see any reason to upgrade it. I just put a new CPU/MB/RAM in my 9-year-old FreeBSD system, only because it was starting to act flaky under heavy load converting video. But horsepower-wise it still had plenty for normal use.
