So was cleaning out my basement the other day and realize that i have an old original g5 (single processor) sitting down there with a 20 inch ADC. Still to this day my favorite computer i've ever had, i remember being so excited when configuring it online and having 2!!! internal HD bays. Also one of the coolest looking displays that I've ever seen.

Shame to see this thing go to waste and i can't bring myself to throw it away. Any ideas?

Donate it maybe? Unfortunately the resell value on both is pretty low. You might get 200 for both from craigslist. The monitor is worth probably as much (if not more) than the tower (although the ADC connector means someone has to find the expensive converter to use it on a modern PC).
 
I actually have the converter considered selling that on Ebay because of its size. I am not sure if i want to sell it on Ebay because the hassle of packing them both up.
