so just acquired (For $100!) a Powermac G5 (june2004), all that's missing is harddrives.

Dual Powerpc G5 2ghz cpu's
2 gigs FB-ddr-400
ATI RADEON 9600 XT with 128MB DDR SDRAM
dvd-rw (superdrive)


gonna slap a 500 gig sata in it and install leopard 10.5 (last mac os that runs on ppc)

aright! the guy finally dropped the beast off, and the actual specs are:

-dual G5 2ghz
-2gigs (4x512) match ddr-400, guess its only the macpros that needed buffered ram due to being xeons
-256meg Ati radeon 9800XT agp x8 (was surprised with this gem)
-8x superdrive
-2.1 bluetooth

Wow man that's sick that you got a machine like that for so cheap. Did you just find it on ebay or something? I wouldn't mind adding something like that to my collection as a folding machine or something.

kijiji, had to put some more ram, hdd and a new vid card in it, got ubunutu 10.04 running on it as all i have for mac os x disks ATm is 10.4. think im gonna throw it back on kijiji for $400 at least so i can order a new vid card, or id trade it ourright for a decant laptop
