Hello /g, I have a question for you.

I got an iMac G5 pc, for free.
>No os discs
>No keyboard
>works fine
>still has old profile on it, with pics n shit

Wat do?
>>
Aquarium.
>>
Gentoo
>>
I'm sorry, but unless it's an Intel model, it is literally useless.
If it indeed IS a PPC machine, install Gentoo (not kidding, seriously, a Linux Distro will work infinitely better than the outdated OSX) and make a server out of it or some shit

give it back jamal

Reinstall OS X, use it for whatever you want
>>52524264
Absolutely objectively false

You can't use the latest versions of OS X because it's PPC (I think the latest you can use is Snow Leopard?) but DO NOT install Linux unless you want to spend your entire life hunting non-existent drivers and troubleshooting bullshit

Was it in the boot of the Audi you stole, Milosz?

Okay, so then it is useless. It looked pretty new, but that maybe is because of all the white shiny plastic and whatnot. In windows terms, I've dug up a 95 ibm.
I shall post a trips decides thread in /b and ask the geniuses there what to do with it
>>
Just gut it and use as an extra monitor.

>>52524301
OSX 10.5. (Leopard) is the last to support PowerPC. And it is super shit.
>>
>>52524422
how

>>52524394
Yeah, I saw the thread and you put your filthy dick on it. Fuck off m8
>>
>>52524636
i delivered. thats 1 in a million chance of happening over there, m8, ive made more ppl happy than mother teresa
>>
It's obsolete and useless. Sell it on ebay, Macs hold their value to absolutely absurd levels.
>>
>>52524394
In Windows terms you've dug up a budget Dell running XP with no service packs.
>>
>>52524509
Upgraded my 2005 imac from Tiger to Leopard, can confirm. Snow Leopard, though not applicable, though is perfect.

Put some ppc Linux on it, or try and find a tiger install.

>but DO NOT install Linux unless you want to spend your entire life hunting non-existent drivers and troubleshooting bullshit

OS X has worse driver support than OS X
>>
Literally worst iMac
>>
Nah it's actually sold, some dude coming to pick up a furniture unit saw it and offered to take it for little cash. My beer money
>>
>>52528700
Good idea. I don't think anything past 2008 macs are supported anymore
