I've got a G4 mini I'd like to do something with. I don't want it in my family room because it has a somewhat noticeable whine when running, but I'm reluctant to get rid of it since it still works great. I replaced it back in 2011 (with another mini) as my regular family computer.
What are your suggestions?:confused:
 
It will function great as old-software workstation:
Adobe CS1
Freehand
Web development with CocoaMySQL, Smultron, Cyberduck, MAMP
 
Disk server for backups, iTunes, and other files. Put it in a room or closet where you won't mind the whine.
