I just recently set up my old 486 dx2/66 for my nieces, who are 5 and 3.  
Plenty of the "Reader Rabbit" type software requires only a 486/33 or so.  
(And now it "rocks" as a 486.  48 meg memory, 6X CD, 700meg hard drive, 
SVGA...)  I tried the software and it seems ridiculously slow to me, but kids 
don't seem to care.  I figure their heads are full of daydreams anyway and 
can't detect CD accesses...

If you've got an old system and know of a family that has young children, see 
about setting it up for them.  Many of the "educational" titles in this 
category are also very cheap.
