I found a 2011 27" iMac in the trash and it works!!!
So yesterday morning my wife and I were driving around. As we were driving through a neighborhood near us several houses had piles of trash out for the trash truck to pickup. As we passed one house I saw what looked like a flat panel tV laying on its back along with lots of other trash. I went back to see what it was and realized it was a 27" iMac!! The screen was fogged over with moisture but I grabbed it and put it in the car. It sat in the back of the car for several hours in the sun. After it warmed up and dried the screen cleared up. After the screen cleared up I decided to plug it in and see if it would even turn on. Surprisingly it started right up and worked perfectly! There was some info for other people on it so I wiped the system and started with a fresh install and it is running awesome now! Not bad for finding it in the trash layingbin the grass!! A couple inexpensive upgrades and this machine will be really flying faster 🙂 Equipment used for videos Camera - Z Cam E2 https://amzn.to/2TdJr6Y Camera - Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera https://amzn.to/2xjjRES Camera - Panasonic GH5 https://amzn.to/2Vq3hhM Wireless Lavalier - Viking WM220 100 channel system dual lavalier system https://amzn.to/2WRSpIX Wireless Lavalier - Meike MK-WMP16 channel single lavalier system https://amzn.to/2IXvYKi Monitor - Feelworld F7 https://amzn.to/36wcsOb Monitor - PortKeys BM5 https://amzn.to/2RTI76T Lighting - Neewer 480 LED bi-colored 3 light kit https://ebay.to/2t7ZqJ9 Lighting - Neewer 660 LED bi-colored 2 light kit https://ebay.to/35I8K3L Meike 35mm f/1.7 lens https://amzn.to/2YXqIR5 Fotga 77mm VND filter https://amzn.to/2YTcuAN Neewer 48" carbon fiber slider https://amzn.to/2Ha63hQ Female Mannequin https://amzn.to/2HbuHP0 LOMO anamorphic shirt - I sell direct for $16 Lens - Meike 35mm T2.2 cine lens https://amzn.to/37XUmqq Lens - Meike 25mm T2.2 cine lens https://amzn.to/2ZbRdBz Lens - Meike 16mm T2.2 cine lens https://amzn.to/2ZbDyGE Lens - Meike 12mm T2.2 cine lens https://amzn.to/348KuaX Wireless microphone - Meike MK-WMP1 https://amzn.to/35mCeEm Mattebox - Tilta MB-T05 https://amzn.to/2VWqE1J Set of six 4x4 ND filters https://amzn.to/2VxkOED Microphone - Samson Co2 Pencil Microphone https://amzn.to/2VZWRpb Stand alone audio recorder - Tascam DR-05 https://amzn.to/2DVFhZ6 Tripod - Weifang WF-717 https://amzn.to/2PQMMVM Key light - Viltrox L132T https://amzn.to/2YlIokV Hair Light - Neewer CN-160 with a red gel https://amzn.to/2Yl2Ylp Batteries - Wasabi NP-F975 https://amzn.to/2JsMJhR Please Subscribe, Follow and LIKE at: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kepkraftmediaproductions Twitter: https://twitter.com/productionspk Instagram: http://instagram.com/paulkepnerproductions Direct email - productionspk@yahoo.com
