I have four iMac 3G PPC 500Mhz machines . . .

They are all running OS X 10.4.6, except for one, its running 10.4.11 the highest these machines can go. The 10.4.11 machine still has the 20gb HD, and 512m of Ram. I'll be digging about for a pair of 512m to bump it to 1g and a newer HD so that Facebook doesn't take a week to load on it.

I still have yet 3 more machines that are missing various parts (RAM in all three, and two are missing their Airport cards).

I'm thinking about gutting one of the iMacs and replacing the CRT with a flat panel and some PC hardware and loading OS X up on that.

I have most of the parts already, going to dismember a lap top for most of the parts.

Edit: (Big Bang Theory came on I pushed submit too soon)
I think, my main question is this; is there a way to get a reinstall of Tiger off of one of the iMacs for a full system wipe of the iMac I'm going to keep in stock config? I didn't get a disk, I'm having a hard time locating a legal system disk.
