What's the worth of PowerPC Quad...
10.4.11
processor 4 x 2.5 GHz PowerPC G5
Memory 4.5 GB DDR2 SDRAM
NVIDIA GeForce 7800GT

Also- Is is OK to sell it with the programs- such as Word, photoshop FCP, etc- installed? (I figure it might be worth more with programs installed)
Will I be able to install and use these programs on my new MacPro- or do I need to uninstall them from the Quad?

thanks

This site (http://www.mac2sell.net/) might help you. Other than that, see what they've been going for on eBay.

You legally have to uninstall the software if you're going to keep the discs.

I regularly report items which have preloaded software on them to eBay. I think that it's a double negative - they're stealing the software AND they're costing people who sell the computers legitimately money by making theirs look inferior.

Just eBay "imac" or something similar and you'll see countless listings of cheap computers with Creative Suite 3 and Final Cut Studio 2 etc.
