Hi All, My aunt has a 17in 1.8 G5 iMac (M9843LL/A) that unfortunately seems to have a bad logic board. You know, comes on but with the fans set at "747" and no SMU or PRAM reset will do much for it. They don't have the most means-wise, and so I'm looking at options for them. Right now it's either: 1.) Find the same model, and move the hard disk over to it 2.) Somehow migrate the data onto a newer Intel Mac
Obviously I'd prefer 2, but I know that using Migration assistant all but requires the source to either be working, or a recent OS level. So I can hope that I'd find a Intel Mac for her running Tiger still, but that likelihood is low, and even if so I've never run migration assistant using a external drive AND going from PPC to Intel. Any suggestions? This is just a bad situation all around as in addition, this machine contains the QuickBooks data for their business.
