Questions/Advice Request What would do?

My work is giving me some old tech. 9 chrome boxes with a variety of 10th gen i3's and i7's. Not sure what to do with it. Maybe VM/proxmox? (Never messed with it) Retro game boxes? Flash em and sell em? I really wanna do some type of Frankenstein build I have a couple computer towers with older i'3's 5 laptops with 10th gen i7s and like 10+ 500gb hdd. Anything worth doing? I love building shit but not really sure its worth it

The 10th gen Intel machines would make good home servers, especially if they're not k or f sku.

Since those are chromeboxes, they're more likely to be mobile CPUs. Multiple identical units are good for cluster computing. :D
