computer from scratch

Bingo

Cheaper was the demand, and it's what we got. I'd like to buy just the core boards and Power Supply from Apple. If I'm going to use it for my own business and not sell the thing, why not?

By the way: Anyone know how to fit a rev A Imac motherboard into a slot in a 19" rack? Preferrably horizontally in sets. I figure I should be able to fit about 18 in there and about 2 HD per board. I figure 18 500MHZ G3's with 256 a piece, even at 66Mhz bus speeds'd kick ass.
