O, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of [hardware],
That I am meek and gentle with these butchers!

This is why abortion should be allowed up to the 80th trimester.

My in box went from 1% to 100% in 2 days (1300 messages) .... When I showed my friend, who happens to love Apple, he looked sick. He did not say anything to me. He just put his hands on his head and was in shock. I wish I had a picture of that. ... use it mostly for Internet, ripping music/DVDs and pissing off my friend.

I'm no Mac fanboy, but this is retarded
this kid should be executed, and his new system publicly demolished on live TV for the common good.:

The story goes: a boy gets a new dual-processor Macintosh G5 from his
parents for Christmas, but he really wanted a Dell. He tears the guts
out of the G5 and installs a hardware setup that allows him to run XP
within the customized G5 case, and adds neon tubing. Not for the faint
of heart. The page is getting overloaded, so it may not appear in the
browser right away:

Mac v. Windows debate aside, the sheer money thrown away is
heartbreaking. If he wanted neon tubing glowing behind perforated holes
I could've shot an empty standard PC case with buckshot and handed it to
'im real cheap.

Spend 2-3k on a PC case?

Well, his parents might not realise it yet(!), but they did. This idiot got a Dual Processor G5, ripped out the guts and put in a fairly standard PC, and gave the Mac bits to a friend. I wonder if he needs any more friends...

(Wheat) Nice. The G5 chip will go from 55 watts, down to 24.5 watts.
(Wheat) Unless you've replaced your G5 internals with an Athlon ...
(Wheat) A P4 at 3.2 GHz uses 82 watts

.....

(Wheat) Hooo boy, that's a beaut.

(Wheat) Oh man, that is really sad.
(Trakker) fate tells us he was wrong. Monkeyman assigned this like to 'j' because this guy was smoking one.

Virginia Tech swaps out G5 desktops for Xserve racks

j0e9o

macs aren't that faster compared to the new 64bit amds but they are very over priced

bizmark

ya i always noticed that about macs.....they dont offer alot but by god their expensive

Capt'n Midnight

In fairness most MAC's do come with all the bells and whistles included. And the server licensing means you save a few quid compared to using windows servers.

Anyway most computers in offices use software that would cost more than the computer when you count all the required licences including network and antivirus etc.

"I am astonished as to how fast and far this went," he said. "I got e-mails from people in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Spain, Ireland, Germany, U.K., Portugal, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, New Zealand and Australia just to name a few places besides the U.S."


So who here mailed him?

ANyone know where I can source a G5 CPU fan?

daveJAM

Even if you could get your hands on it you wouldn't be able to get the full use out of it. They've got 4 wires and they're all the same colour. Think they might be PWM controlled.

You're probably right. You can't get these working with out the PWM circuit either can you?

Slap the cores onto a 5 or 7V supply and see what happens.
Trial and error tbh.
