Ive rediscovered a really old Power PC G4 in my loft that I really want to wipe before passing it on - its the one with the round white base and the flat screen.

Its currently got OSx 10.2.8 and I cant find the disks. Does anyone know of any way I can guarantee there is no personal data on there or if there is any download so that I can install a fresh OS - not fussed what version as long as I can clean it.

Many thanks in advance.

Depending on how you intend on passing it on...you could simply remove the hard drive.
