Heh. Ironically Im getting LEDs soon. I figured if my iMac is "different", it should look it. Just you wait, you'll all be impressed... cuz its not just LEDs that Im using to…

webslacker, if you're going for the gothic black look for your G3, why not get the handles replaced with some wrought iron ones ? I'm sure some local blacksmith, or metal artist co…
