I've got a spare G5 lying around which is obsolete so i figger instead of throwing it out, why not just recycle it?
Apparently that case is quite a favorite among Wintel users who are converting them now with state of the art PC components.
...anyone here have any idea how this is done and the difficulties that one can encounter?
And what kind of components would you suggest for purchase? Which ones work best together and are most compatible with Windows and Centos/Ubuntuu linux?
Im not a PC user so Im not up to date on what has come out in the past 20 years. I just remember the Pentium 4 that ran with Dell Optiplex way back when. Im even thinking of converting it as well.
Rather than throw away these old computers I figger its better to recycle them.
Is this viable or even worth the bother?
