What should I do (if anything) with my Enron computer?

Asked by gambitking (4206points) February 27th, 2012

So I happen to have in my possession an old Dell computer that was once a workstation PC at Enron in Houston, TX. (it still even has the Enron tag on it)

I’m not sure if it has any of the old Enron data on it, but it was in service as a family computer shortly after it was brought home from Enron. I’ve had it for several years, and taken good care of it but never done anything with it.

So, if I sell it, would it be worth anything? Would its history add anything to the value at all?

And, although perhaps a paranoid and humorous thought….Would I end up with some suits at my door seizing it?

If I ended up keeping it just as a good ol’ fashioned secondary PC, what are some good ways to put her to use?
