after using an iMac G3 as my main machine from July 2007 to July 2008, I personally can't stand them anymore. They are slow (I've only used the 350mhz models however)

A 700 MHz G3 iMac with 1 GB of RAM is a surprisingly usable Tiger workstation. Access to the hard drive and CD drive is not too difficult (the iMac G4 is even worse).

Also, when I first got my iMac G3 I thought the fan was broken (later found out there isn't one) and used a fan, it caused the screen to shimmer so bad I turned the fan off.

That would happen with any monitor.
