Default What to do with my Linux server...

I recently inherited a computer from a family member after I built him a new one. It's a nice little setup, nothing huge, so I thought it would be interesting if I slapped Fedora 6 on it for a change. Now that I have Fedora on it, I'm not sure what to do with it...in other words, what can I do with it and what are my options for making this linux system worth the electricity it consumes...?...I'm in a gray area right now with what to do with it, so I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions...thanks for the input in advance,

Make it a LAMP server.

Or, plop folding on it and run for us.

Minding that I am still relatively new to Linux, I downloaded the folding software for linux (an EXE file), but my Fedora will not open it...is folding with Fedora 6 possible or do I need to switch to another linux distro? I may just be going about installing the folding software completely wrong though, who's to say. Thanks again for the help,
