The CPU may be upgradeable, but increasing your RAM to 512MB will make much more of a difference. But is it worth it? I suppose if you can get the RAM cheap enough it is....

better sell it.
buy a secondhand if you don't want to spend too much.
you could get a decent PentiumIII 700mhz, 384MB memory around $70 for home server.
including HDD, VGA Card, soundcard, casing and PSU.

yes it can but this depends on if you are willing to buy a new case($27-49.00) a good motherboard(asus or abit P4 goes for around $75 at Fry's) and a processor of 2.0 ghz or above(ebay is the place to find this at a great price usually sells for around $75-90)
if you have any questions you can email me anytime.
