TONS of equipment

Hey all, the past few months i've been getting my name out in my local area and even a bit further to people that have old computers and computer hardware they just wanna get rid of. We use it to build sweet things!! i hardly purchased a single thing in my whole lab! I just got another HUGE shipment from a computer store my friend owns. I'm running out of room in my lab and I wanted to ask everyone if they had any tips or tuts i can look at so that i can begin making these semi-old pentium II and III computers, bunch of cards, server tower, monitors, and other stuff into some machines. This is all for learning and fun cause i love this stuff! The pic is of all the stuff i have to work with!
ANY help or ideas will be greatly appreciated.

(no i didnt google anything yet, but i thought id ask the suck-o members first, someones always got something good to say)

HOLY TRUMPETEER!! I got a tip,send me a couple of that stuff there xD

just kidding (unless you want to in which case you can totally send me stuff) but dude you have enough stuff there to make a hologram. But I really think you should just put a bunch of the stuff together and make a superly awesome pc.

with that amount of equipment you can setup a lot of servers and get into building clusters...*drools* but watch your electricity bill...
