[G5] Another dead iMac G5.

[Steve Goldstein]

There is yet another option. For $25 or less you can buy a USB adapter  
that accepts both IDE and SATA HDDs of either 2.5" or 3.5" form  
factors. I have one that is a docking station on order for $18 from Handhelditems.com 
, but it might be for SATAs only--I forget.  You might also search on dealmac.com 
.

Thanks,
