Do they actually have any prices listed? I did not get to browse at all because the shit-scripts on that site killed firefox pretty quickly.

They probably need the motherboards recapped and that costs $100+ to send out and have it done (each plus shipping). Anybody who buys broken equipment that cannot troubleshoot or f…

My Dual 2.7 G5 is more than powerful enough for what I do - lots of CAD, some 3d rendering and light photo and SD video editing. So far, I see no reason to upgrade to an intel sys…

Only better because of the awesome write up.

This sounds like a better deal.

Any problems they have won't be linked to leaking cooling devices. All 2.0GHz models are strictly air cooled. For $100 it sounds like a winner. If they showed up here, I'd go fo…

I agree, go for it. It's tough to imagine any scenario in which you couldn't get more than $100 parting them out if they turned out to be unfixable. And as others have said, if one…

Make sure the batteries are installed correctly (+ and - in the correct orientation). Does the PS click at all when you try to turn it on? Check for leaking capacitors and that t…

Definitely looks like bad / dirty VRAM to me. Try removing the VRAM SIMM and cleaning the gold fingers with a clean pencil eraser. This problem may be affected by bumping the mac…

I'm pretty sure you have to upload them somewhere else and link to them. Try this free service: http://imageshack.us/

It's maybe an exaggeration to take the statement "there are no 64-bit PowerPC apps" and add all of those extra qualifiers to it. There may be a few, I don't know whether or not Ape…

I think benchmarks are shit too, and they favor Intel Macs over PPC Macs somehow. Everything is optimized for x86, many times more effort has been put into optimizing x86 compilers…

Check the motherboard for leaking caps.

I'm sure the parts are worth more than $100 easy. There is a small market just for the G5 tower case for Mods and those can fetch about $100 each. Then there is the possibility …

I have recently acquired an Apple Macintosh IIx which does not power on. No chimes, No nothing. I have replaced the power supply and both batteries but still nothing. Power on…

You should make an estimation as to how easy and/or cheap it will be for you to fix the machines. Then you can decide if it's a good deal or not. Just having broken machines isn't…

I think any G5, working or not, $100 is a great deal! :O

sorry they took so long wait i can't figure out how to upload pictures can someone tell me?

Yes, I was going to mention the issue with the caps on all of the iMac G5 models, but I see that you've come to that conclusion. Might be a cap either in the PSU or the logic boar…

some one on my local craigslist is selling 2 powermac g5s 2.0 ghz dual processor that "One powers on but has no boot, Other one powers on but randomly turns off." for $100. is this…

They don't have a toll-free number unfortunately. and you're right, there are a lot of things of interest there. I realized they have a support email though, so I will send the…

They have a ton if useful things including replacment mobos for mostly every mac model. After browsing the site a little more I found these hard drives listed: 0 0 0 WD10000033-0…

They have a phone number, call them.

Now I know that this is an even bigger longshot... but does anybody know if this site is active? http://www.surpluscomputerliq.com/default.htm
