I think the only thing you can do is use a new (or better) computer.

As Didymus pointed out, the most TBC-friendly way to watch them would be to purchase the DVD (either the 3-disc set or the recent disc four). If either one is out of the question for financial reasons, it is possible to convert SWF to AVI.

While this may not be technically feasible on an older machine (I don't know the specs of your "OLD" computer), you may want to consider trying "WinMPG Video Convert" currently in version 5.7. There is a trial version available for download that you may use to convert the first five minutes of a Flash file (so far, the longest Strong Bad email, Flashback, clocks in at precisely that).
Good luck!

Your computer doesn't support Flash? You should be able to watch the toons by downloading the latest version of Flash as well as the latest version of your browser.

Try Limewire or DC++. If that doesn't work, then I guess the best thing to do is to buy the DVD. Then again, if you don't have Flash, then it might be difficult for you to get to Homestore Runner.

Perhaps headphones would be in order...

ANd i agree with porplemontage, that's weird that your computer won't support flash. Will it support quicktime or realplayer? I think both of those can play flash, so if you can get the .swf files you can play them there.
