G5 tower heater

[lost in space]

My office doesn't have heat, which wasn't a problem when I had a G5 tower on my desk and later, an Intel Pro. Since I got a new iMac, the office has been cold so I got my old G5 out of the surplus pile and plugged it in. Problem solved, and it's a cool looking heater.

You could just burn the furniture for heat......

You can't make this stuff up (unless lost is making this up)!

I just overclock my Hac more in the winter. Still not as hot as my Dual 2.7 G5 was though.

you could buy an old G5 on craiglist, gut it and install a ceramic personal heater and put it under your desk.

I've been tempted to contact a local hackintosh maker to gut my G5 and install new innards. Don't know if it is feasible, but figured it might be worth a try.

I had one; loved it in the winter, hated it in the summer. Always loved the look/design -- and the bonus ports UP FRONT for goodness' sakes.
