[QUOTE="Strimkind, post: 992971, member: 64504"] There is a small market for old scsi stuff on Ebay and the same goes for old memory depending on the size. If your G4 is a tower, it will be a pain to find an OEM power supply, but apparently you can modify a standard PC ATX power supply to work in a G4. The G3 iMac just needs a firmware upgrade. Plug it into an ethernet port, put in the OSX disk and let it do the work. The Beige G3 can support up to 10.3.9 using Xpostfacto. Both machines are good if you want to donate them to a local charity. There is not too much value for that era of machines anymore. [/QUOTE]
