[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1609792, member: 56379"] One thing to be aware of. The max OS version on this computer is 10.5.8. Apple no longer supports OS 10.6 with security updates (and this OS is one version newer). So no new security updates for any Mac OS older than OS 10.7. So someone using this computer (if it can be made operational)...will be more vunerable to security issues. Especially if there is ANY personal info transmitted via this computer (names, address's, phone numbers, passwords, personal ID's, bank accounts, etc.). This means any websites that require passwords & ID's: - email - iTunes - Facebook - eBay - banks - school signin's - anything requiring a credit card - etc. etc. * Nick [/QUOTE]
