OT: Need older computer for son

Janina · #1 01/10/2008, 03:40 PM

Anybody have an older computer (monitor not required) kicking around that they might be interested in dontating or selling for cheap? My 12 year old son wants to get his own computer and he doesn't have a lot of money to spend.

Thanks

I have a Mac G5 and 17 inch monitor. its the old one not the intel one. i think its a 1.6 ghz and not much ram. I pulled out most of it and threw it in my new computer.
