I recently moved my office in rented space to my house, and downsized to 0 employees. Now I have WAY too much hardware. We are a family of 5 with 5 computers and 1 PC.....and I am thinking with Boot Camp things could be a lot simplier still.
So what is the best way to dump all this stuff and migrate to intel-based machines?
This is what I have:
Snow iMac G3
iBook 12" (needs battery) White dual USB G3
original G4 Sawtooth (complete with 1 of 1000 posters that were sent to first buyers)
Powerbook 12" Aluminum 867 (needs new top case, trackpad broken) G4
Dual 867 Mirror Door G4
I also have a 20" Cinema Display that I could let go, too. I think we could "survive" on one laptop and one iMac (or tower with display), and it would take up a lot less room, too.
Any suggestions? It strikes me that these units are worth more as parts than they are as computers. In all cases lots of memory has been added. Both towers have 120GB second drives.
What is a fair price for this stuff?
I am thinking intel towers are not coming until WWDC. Has anyone heard anything? I'm more inclined to buy one of those than an iMac.
Thanks.
