Re: Reasonably priced Mac Pro
The annoying thing is that old mac hardware seems to disappear quite quickly. Either:
- It breaks because frankly the build quality / repairability sucks
- Apple buys it and disposes it as soon as possible to not to "confuse" consumers
- Apple fans keep onto the hardware hoping that one day they can sell it high and unfortunately that day never comes.
The IBM PowerPC architecture is interesting (for OpenBSD) but unfortunately grabbing an old G5 (in decentish condition) is harder than an actual i.e IBM IntelliStation POWER 185 and the latter has the added convenience of getting to play a little with AIX.
