Call me boring but I love her as-is with her iconic red dress!

My very first FB Marketplace purchase… and I’m pretty satisfied with it. It’s sold as “for parts” and I took a look inside and found that the hard drive is missing. Not the end of the world, I have hard drives around as you can see on my desk. But what’s more concerning is the infamous capacitor problem the G5’s know for. I spotted like 5 bad ones.

I have yet to order capacitor replacements. Should I buy the specific specs those capacitors have (1800uF, 6.3V)?

Pretty modest I would say. I was hoping to have at least have all the base models from 2G to X. I could potentially have an iPhone X and 7 from family soon. The rest, i’ll probably have to buy myself.
