Yeah, thankfully the hard drive does look very simple to replace.

I kinda figured the side panel was broken too, but I've never disassembled a iMac G3 before, so I didn't know for sure. It's almost a shame, because the machine seems pretty good outside of the case fractures. Do you really need to discharge the CRT to replace the bezel around it? I've never worked with a CRT Mac before but I want to play safe as well.

I have another guy that wants me to check out some iMac G3's (apparently Indigo as well). I hate to get another machine but so far I've had no luck finding inexpensive G3 case parts online.
