[QUOTE="AJB, post: 784176, member: 49421"] I have an old G$ tower, reasonable amount of memory and two drives, plus a 23" cinema screen. Both are redundant as I have new iMac and powerbook. The cinema screen has the old connection type so is no use as a second screen with the iMac as far as I know. (Please correct me if I am wrong). I don't want to sell the G4 on eBay as I am worried about data theft (I used it in my business) even if I erase the drives. So, does anyone have any bright ideas about what I can do with this set-up. Seems a shame just to throw it all away as it all works fine - if slowly compared with modern gear. (Runs Tiger by the way). All ideas welcomed. thanks. [/QUOTE]
