[QUOTE="tsquad, post: 1786054, member: 398359"] Hello everyone! So I just picked up an 08 or 09 iMac last night off Facebook with no keyboard/mouse/power cord for $15. Turns out a standard pc power cord works just fine, and the computer turned on. But it gave me a folder with a ? In it. It looks like this was purchased from a school and was wiped clean, so it has no OS on it. My question is, is the only way for me to get an OS X CD to buy it from apple and have them ship it to me? Seeing as I don't have access to the apple store on another apple computer, I can't download the file that way. I would like to just download it on my pc and burn the disc if possible. [/QUOTE]
