Socket A is a non-starter.

Those are now worthless due to the age and crash issues. The P4 you listed is only slightly better. The OS is the only item of value there but take that away and you may find that for free on curbs and Freecycle.

Take the P4. Give no money.

Thank you for your time and input. It is greatly appreciated. Well the computers were free so I guess I got some free junk.
