That iMac is a good performer, and yet I would try for a lower price on it if possible. If you're not taken by the idea of a tower and you just want a convenient little workstation…
well i was looking on eBay and craigslist and both are kinda pricey for a g4 iMac, Mac Mini, and PowerMac, about $90 (£45ish) + shipping about $25 and up. and (with my PC knowledge…

It's not really worth it, for around the same amount you should be able to get a low end G4 on ebay: £35 G4. Much more expandable and all you need is a cheapo monitor to go with i…
For most "normal" modern computing tasks, (web browsing, music, email etc), the 500MHz era G3 iMacs are more than up to the job and will motor along nicely with Tiger and a decent …
I'm looking into buying an iMac G3 (Slot loaded CD/DvD) w/ 500MHz, 256MB (up to 1GB on this model i believe) and Mac OS X 10.4 (tiger i believe) installed. At my work we use Mac Mi…

I got bored, so I decided to give my Power Mac G4 Quicksilver a little boost. Removed the CPU module and flipped it over.…
^^The CPU and Ram upgrades are not the problem here, as a last resort you may need to beef up the PSU for a high end AGP card but if you stick an old Radon in, their power requirem…

I also note that you are running a stock machine no upgrades
mine has sonnet/encore st/G4 1.8Ghz CPU and 1GB memory
and there in lies my problem, nothing seems to work …
Fiber optics with small nicks in the run works pretty well, having everything lead back to a single LED. There was an iBook one done this way that did, as you mention, tie into the…

to Rodus and Coius: I have been told because my G4 AGP is no longer stock ie upgraded that no Geoforce cards will work because of power issues is this true ?

I haven't heard that and would doubt it's correct (maybe someone else can correct me here). IIRC the 5200's were 8x AGP so you'd have to tape a couple of the connectors which is h…
to Bunsen: yes it was a Mac version ( but could have been duff )

you could flash a PC 6200 AGP for that thing. a AGP Geforce 6200 (has to be the wang version) would work better then a 7000 PCI or AGP, or you could use a Radeon 9800 Pro in it as …

I just got a Geforce4 MX 64MB AGP Card and Leopard runs great on it! Although there is no Core Image, but who cares?!?!
I am running Leopard on this puppy with a Dual 450MHz CPU,…

unlike the 400Mhz Sawtooths, G4 350MHz G4's have no hope of using Dual processors as they were pre-Rev 7 boards (Uni-north 3 instead of Uni-north Rev 7). you need Uni-North 7 in o…
So like you could make leopard run on a G3?

well you can run Leopard on a G3 system that has a G4 upgrade on it, but its not the same as running it on a G3 t…
