my car takes no-brand juice out of these
My 3 desktop Macs (2005 mini, 2014 mini, 2009 Pro) take power from this.
My old 2008 3,1 MacPro served me very well for 9.5 years but is collecting dust now, still works though 
I bought mine used a few months ago. Great upgrade from the 2014 Mac mini, and I think it will tide me over until the remainder of Apple Silicon rollout finishes.
It is a 2009, and a previous owner bumped the memory up to 24 GB, there is an SSD (512 GB) and three HDD (1 TB each). Also, best of all the processor was upgraded to a 6 core 3.33 GHz Intel Xeon and the firmware was already at the latest version.
The only thing I could realistically considering to increase the power would be to swap out the single processor board for a dual processor board, but those are going for at least $500 - $600, with no memory. Little too much to spend (well, I tell myself that).
[Edit: So I saw that "blur" on the lower front of the computer after I uploaded the picture. So I look at it closer and run my hand over it. It was a bunch of white cat hair that got sucked onto the front grill. 🙀]

those are some mighty fans, lots of cooling to do
mine is actually a dual quad core ... I'm going to investigate to sell it, might bring a couple hundred bucks ...
True, The Beast needs mighty fans to keep it cool.those are some mighty fans, lots of cooling to do

I bought mine for around $425. Give it shot, worst case no one shows enough interest and then you are no worse off than you are now.
going from a Mac cheese grater to the real thing
the resemblance is remarkable LOL

Speaking of cheese - They used to think the moon was made of cheese
While consistent pasture sequence, these are also the actual cows that provided the milk for yesterdays cheese processing photo.
Here is a sign on the inner (electric) fence where the bison roam at the Battelle Darby Creek Park. Apparently bison are not nice animals to be around once they get riled up...
No place of business nor graffiti, but chairs.
We are having the fascia wood around the edges of the house replaced (it is rotting and the house s 20 years old).
We have pushed stuff on the patio away from the house to give the contractors room to work, which is why everything is so close together.
