The cheaper, the better! I dont want to price it because I dont want people to laugh at me for asking so low of a price....

I basically am hoping someone has one laying around somewhere in a basement or attic that would let it go just to get it out of thier hair.

PS. I don't need a screen, just the tower.

I got a G4 machine just laying around, except it's a Powerbook G4. It's currently a desktop machine since it doesn't have the top part to it...it's basically headless, but it works nonetheless. I'm looking to get $200 for it. Or, if ur willing to part with your mini... I'd take that along with $75. :-D
