You would be proud of me... I run a Mac Pro 1,1 (2006) that has an EFI firmware update to a 2,1 using a boot loader to run OSX 10.9 if I wish. Working on ways to run OSX 10 on it should be successful soon.
I have a 120GB SSD as a boot drive, 14GB RAM (nearly all scrounged) and just recently bought a couple of 5355 SLAEG CPUs for $50 to bump it from four processors at 2.0GHz to eight running at 2.6GHz. Last night I installed an ATI 5850 graphics card flashed with the proper EFI so I get boot screens. It's an antique, but there is a large contingent of Mac enthusiasts with these and some willing code writers who keep finding ways around the 32 bit EFI they are crippled with. I love it and can't imagine using anything else.
