iMac G4 (Late 2003) 20" Display IS MINE.

[Johnny365]

Got off of Craigslist for $70!

Has 1.25GHz Power PC CPU, Geforce 5200 64MB GPU, 786MB Ram (upgradable to 2GB), 80GB HDD, "Pioneer brand" Super Drive, 1650x1080 Resolution. It's very nice! I always wanted one and this one just popped up and couldn't resist. It's on 10.4.x and I know it's not going to be anything useful for the web browsing. Has Word 2004, a few games. Didn't realize this particular one goes for a decent amount on eBay.

GRAH, the design of this iMac is just stunning!

Heavy too lol

Ahh I Still get excited when I see one in movies and tv from the day... I'm a youngin' and I remember looking at my sad Windows Xp computer and just knowing I was missing out an experience.

Congratulations on your wonderful machine.

Nice find! I recommend you post this in the PowerPC Macs section, there you'll find people who like and use Macs of this age.

You can get a modern web browser for PowerPC 10.4.11 called TenFourFox. Browsing the web on a G4 is slow, but does work just fine for the most part.

So I plan on upgrading the HDD to a (cheap) SSD. What PATA-->SATA adapter works best for this iMac G4?

 

[Johnny365]

Anyone?

My newest addition is a Bondi Blue iMac ("Kiva") from Summer 2001.

500Mhz with 512MB of RAM (upgradeable to 1GB) and Airport 802.11b capable.

Came with matching colored Apple keyboard, no mouse!

$20

That wouldn't be Bondi Blue, only the original was Bondi Blue. Yours is probably an Indigo.

 

[Johnny365]

I'm going off of what the Apple Serial Info site says, and it looks "blue" in color to me. Isn't Indigo a more greenish/blue?

 

[redheeler]

Isn't Indigo a more greenish/blue?

No, you've got that backwards. Bondi Blue is more greenish, Indigo is a darker blue.

 

[Johnny365]

Indigo it is!
[doublepost=1463456781][/doublepost]Prices are all over the place on these iMacs. Not as heavy as the eMac I have though!

The eMac was easier to take apart.
