Jonnyp 9 #1 Posted November 16, 2010 Looking for ideas on what to do with my old mac now I have a nice big new one. My old one is the g5 imac, brought in just before they upgraded to intel (man was I gutted...). Its still running like a charm so surely can be put to good use. I was thinking about cutting some holes in a coffee table so I can lay it down flat and it be flush with the table then using it as a media center? Would work pretty well in my bachelor pad. Open discussion... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oww My Nose 19 #2 Posted November 17, 2010 Sounds like you have a good idea to put it to use. Extra points if you MacGyver a touchscreen to use instead of a keyboard + mouse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonnyp 9 #3 Posted November 17, 2010 worth a shot... might just go for the wireless mouse + keyboard. I did see someone who once fitted their mac mini into a car and fitted a double din size touch screen and made that work. was pretty fly. doubt I have the mad hacker skills though...

Victoreem the V of doom 30 #5 Posted November 18, 2010 As much as I love your idea to make an media center, I have to suggest you cast it into the fires of mount doom. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
