It's sadly time to say goodbye...

at point , time, happen have 3 powermacs lying around room, mom has told me @ least 1 has go. need deciding leaving fine judgement of people!

machines beloved 867 mhz quicksilver (aka silver surfer), 1 ghz mdd, , 2.0 ghz dual 2004 g5. mdd has had little done it, whereas quicksilver has had added short of new cpu , sata card. g5 stock, , came 4gb of ram.

specs:

quicksilver: 867 mhz, 1.5 gb ram, 250gb maxtor hd ide, superdrive 1x (lol), usb 2.0 pci, pci wireless
geekbench: 387

mdd: 1 ghz single, 768 mb ram, 80gb wd black hd ide, combo drive, geforce 4 (not ti)
geekbench: 568

2004 g5: 2.0 ghz dual, 4 gb ram, 160gb segate hd sata, superdrive 6x, geforce 5200 ultra, apple airport extreme w/antenna
geekbench: 1820 (wow, okay!)

nostalgia factor quicksilver huge me. found machine on side of road waiting collected garbage pickup, alongside sawtooth. sadly, sawtooth died in "surgery", because power supply died , blew several tiny caps in mb. put every inch of effort quicksilver restore it, got 17" studio display , matching pro keyboard , mouse too.

mdd bought earlier year, intended complete it, reason 1 ghz doesn't appeal me, , have gaming pc build focus on.

g5 given me friend's father. works @ own advertisement agency , used testing machine older browsers, , after seeing how care gave bring him decided donate later me!

so, macrumors ppc elders, leave you. have sell @ least one, because of lack of moral responsibility, can't chose!

 

if me i'd ditch qs. although if mdd louder ditch

keep g5. traded dual core 8gb of ddr3 , nib 120gb ssd. bad guy wouldn't trade 466mhz digital audio
