basically the place i work at has really shitty imacs that are dying

and these are the best I could find

for general use like browsing and shit

fist step: check if they got microcode updates against certain attacks :D

if they are imac :/

they are bitch to repair

need refit or what ever to install windows/linux on them

locked down bullshit

not that osX is bad but you cant upgrade probly those models high enough to get needed security updates

thanks how apple works ?

well I tried to repair them

but they are way too old

and a pain in the ass to open up

and they're dying from poor heat management

sounds like apple product indeed

anyways

i was able to get these for dirt cheap

but I need to upgrade them for the next 5 years or so

im hoping to get some chink parts

like Wifi PCI cards, Kingdian SSD

some chink DDR3 ram

and maybe a chink GTX 1050

unless you want to turn them into NAS or homeservers i would not hoard such stuff

unless free tbh

they're for a school

im helping them procure and fix them up

so they can have computers for students

for public space computers ? i guess why not

i mean those will struggle to run excell probly rthese days

thanks to security patches and all that jazz

is it really that bad

I tested out the system just now and it seems fine for what students use

which is chrome

and Google apps

excel is just bloated like all microshit office products

people dont use microsoft office anymore

specialy if you throw any serious excel sheet at it

i wish that was true @Jignx

i wish

i would pay to see that future
