Not about Macs but I "revived" my 15 y.o. desktop, had original board and CPU (Q6600), SSD and powersupply stored for years. Bought 8 GB of DDR2, a fanless GT9500 and a cheap case. My case is to have a modern PC but older types of monitors. I like to hook up CRTs just for fun. When you use sub-HD resolutions this kind of computer goes to Youtube normally. Which reminds me of how deep we're in era of iterative design. Modern workflow is possible on a 15 years old platform, because the platform hasn't changed significantly. Imagine trying a year 2000 workflow on a 1985 PC.
