It "Wasn't working" so my Dads boss decided to give it to us. So later down the line once I'm done messing with it I'm going to use it as a media PC for my parents TV room.

Here's some specs:

Code: [Select]

Processor Name:	Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed:	2.8 GHz
Memory:	18 GB (Sticks: 2x1gb 4x2gb 2x4gb) (Heheh)
ATI Radeon HD 5870 (VRAM 1gb)
750GB Hardrive (Plus I think there was a 2TB drive as well but it needs to be reseated)

Needless to say it's a pretty awesome free computer.

Hardly.

Heres the set up right now:

They are both synced (Sunked?) with Synergy currently.

I'd never buy a Mac any of their other products simply because they are over priced but if I'm going to get them for free then I'll take them.

I don't want to give money to a company that wildly overprices their gear.

Haha, that thing probably costs $10,000 at Apple's prices.
