    I found an offer for a 2009 iMac, 24'', 2.4 Ghz, 320 GB, mouse and keyboard included for £200 (~$263). Seller claims it is in perfect condition. Is it worth it buying it in late 2017? I need it mainly as a screen extension of my MacBook 12'' early 2016. If I use it as a desktop, I will be...

    White Unibody on Steroids

    I'm a happy owner of a Mid-2010, white unibody MB (aka: MC516LL/A - MacBook7,1) I know that to some this is probably a dinosaur... but it does what I need it to do, and as a [subjective] bonus, I just like how it looks. Am I the only one who would like Apple to make another white computer...

    Hi everyone. I'm looking to upgrade either a Digital Audio, Quicksilver, or Mirrored Drive Door PowerMac G4. I've got everything decided except the video card. I've stumbled upon a really good deal on a Radeon 9800 Pro. Given that it has an ADC port I'm assuming that it's out of a PowerMac G5...
