More of as a project than anything else I am wondering about the feasibility of picking up a G5 Powermac off of eBay and installing a new Motherboard and Intel Chip to use the system as a Windows/Linux Box.
I know it will probably be cheaper and easier just to buy a Windows Box, but this is for fun.
Things I want to know are:
1) Is it even reasonable to do, and if so things to watch out for
2) What would I be able to reuse (or not) such as Video Cards
Thoughts, comments or personal experience??
