Along those lines, I got a little “second wind” from my Graphite DV by attaching a TV tuner to it and watching TV through it. Once Comcast went full-digital, that was no longer an option, so my unit is also looking or something else to do. It might make a decent terminal for another computer in the house (ie running a remote desktop technology to access one of the more modern computers in the house) but the resolution is not all that high these days to do that.
I think letting it act as some kind of media player is a decent role. You might want to Google/Bing around a bit for other ideas… From: imaclist@googlegroups.com [mailto:imaclist@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Julia Brinckloe Sent: Monday, February 23, 2015 3:58 PM To: imaclist@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: What do you use your (old) iMac for in 2015? The snow is a little beauty. I would load a bunch of favorite photos and use it as an art piece---run slideshows...a great piece for any room. If you want to sell it, I want to buy it. But don't sell it.
