Heheheh. I've got two G3 iMacs. One from family, the other from a teacher. I love my colorful old machines, and I still use them frequently. An Indigo handles OSX, but I'd love to install OS9 on it instead. My Blue iMac handles OS 9, same OS it came with, aside from an update to 9.1. These things still run well. They're much more aesthetically appealing than the black metal Windows Desktop I'm viewing YT on, and they make my desk look much better... At least, on THEIR side.
Now my 5150 could never turn itself on, the PSU is directly controlled by the red flip switch and is independent from the computer (you can turn on the PSU without it actually being plugged into the systemboard --> but doing that can make it unstable as the power sort of builds up without anywhere to go as I was told).
when i was in 7th grade we had a huge computer lap filled with these stupid i macs. all of the students hated them. then we got pcs the next year and everyone was happy, we could play countless games during lunch and we were all used to them. our computer teachers who ran the lab even told us that we are now using pcs, the advanced computer. som much better than an apple with a gay pride rainbow on it.
@geterhero ha i see - i know the same but in the reversed way - pc´s all ok but the mac´s wont connect to internet, network, some even dont want to boot^^
Yeah, I know, but if you watched Magoo's 1001 Arabian Nights - a production of Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation - you'll hear the Mac startup chime at the beginning of the film, where the sun pushes the moon away! And did you know that those same studios re-did the Mac sound 50 years later with Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, the one where Baby Brent turns into Chicken Brent? They also did it with Disney/Pixar's WALL-E, too!
so that means you must mean Motorola macs like the Quaddra Macintosh 128K etc. How can anyone compare something that old and to be honest UGLY, to the stuff Apple offered in 1998 and after
well, I'm not saying I hate ALL macs, I mean to say that the macs put out by Apple now are horrible. Early iMacs and some of the Gx series I have no problem with, and i also do like vintage apple products. But I don't like the current line of Mac products now.
I think you are correct. I actualy think an iMac G3 is a good computer for primary schools but if you are at home playing games it isn't that good. I must admit. It is a good enough Mac for a school. It is possible for it to run Word Mac and other office apps but it just needs a couple of upgrades to run Mac OS X Leopard but look at the new iMac on the Apple Web Site!
LOL an iMac G3 won't run Leopard, PowerPC G3 Cpus are not supported, so will fail to install & fail to boot. You need an 867Mhz G4, and iMac g3 can run 10.4 tiger max.
aaaa! my good and old time with my old mac G3 now i have macbook!
