I have a digital camera that is now (and in fact,

Mine is quite safely "over the line" - my first digital camera was a
QuickTake 150
My oldest is not quite there--a Mustek VDC-300 from 1998. 640x480,
but can take a CF card, as long as it's not too large (16MB seems to
work, but 128MB doesn't). Miserable photo quality, but simple to use-
-and it doubles as a videocam with NTSC output. At $150, it seemed
like a very good deal back then.
Just shows how far we've come.
Okay, so what does one do with these relics? One can reuse old PCs
to do various things, but what's an old digicam good for?
Cheers,
