The other day I found a 21.5 inch iMac discarded in the trash room in my apartment building, so I snatched it and today we're going to try to fix it up! Even though it might be old or broken, it's never a good idea to throw out your old tech. Today I'll show that with some elbow grease and a few bucks in parts you can fix up a broken machine like this and save it from the landfill!
