Unless you need the $50 and you really don't want to keep it, just donate it.

Sell parts by parts you might be able to get $200 for it. But do you really want all the trouble?

Most obvious answer is that it's way cheaper.

It's always good to build your desktop from the ground up with OSX compatible hardware. Stay away from premanufactured systems. OSX86 forum has a lot of info.
