    Ok so its not just a good working imac this imac has hard drive failure and I wanted to know what you guys think of how much I could/should sell it for in that condition. Also if I buy a time capsule could I install snow leopard on it?

    Why don't you put a new hard drive in?

    Same question as earlier poster, also, you can't put snow leopard on a time capsule, as it's not actually a computer, simply a backup device.

    Not trying to be to rude or anything but have you considered getting a job? And a new hard drive isn't that expensive.

    Any 3.5" S-ATA HDD will fit, I don't know which is best. Look at Seagates and Hitachis or WDs via www.macsales.com for example.
