It helps keep things organized if you dedicate machines to specific software/tasks.
There are a few machines in my collection I got for free and was about to toss because they looked so bad, but they cleaned up so nicely I kept them. You never know untill you put the effort into cleaning them.
Those old 20" displays (trinitron I asume) are pretty good for CAD work if you don't mind the heat they produce (hey it is winter anyway). I have a 20" Supermac STD-9797 (GDM-1950) that is heavy but nice for old macs. At one time I used Ashlar Vellum (CAD on a IIfx), I also have the only 68k version of DesignCAD produced. Exotic hardware needs exotic software (I get kicks out of CAD and scientific software).
