Ok so G5 2.1 ghz iSight iMac is dead fell of desk dead. All I have is the Computer and Power Cord, Manual and Restore disks. Nothing else not even a mouse or keyboard or box. all long gone.
So what to do with it.
Part out. Sell parts but parts will have to be sold as possibly defective/damaged.
Sell as it. Sell as is damaged.
Trash it. local recycle center will not take computers only on special once a year days, usually around spring. If they are even open when spring comes. They are in rough shape.
Donate Will they scrub the hard drive? (See below) Say a charity or something along those lines. As long as they don't take apart and sell parts as good when they are suspect possibly damaged.
What would apple do. Supposedly they have a recycle program. It has a value just very small value.
Maybe the removeable memory would be sellable but even then its still possibly damaged/Defective.
Hard drive is clean except for visiting our personal checking account banks (Wachovia) website. No online bill pay or anything just checking balances transactions deposits. Wachovia is now Wells Fargo with new account name and password but old account number. No business was conducted using this computer except for the above. So a clean hard drive right??
Suggestions please!!!!!!
