BRAND NEW iMac! (G3-powered!)

[maceffects]

Brings back memories, I bought a new 350mhz iMac like that when they were new. Loved it. Sadly iMacs now have their plastic fadded and internal plastics cracked, I still have my 700mhz G3 iMac (the newest G3) and while she is old and tired she works like new. Wish I could find a purpose for her today.

GREEN SCREEN!

Installing mac os 9.1 so i can FINALLY update the firmware!

ok got the firmware updating!

done. now booting, looks good so far!

Success! Finally!

a little patience never hurts

Moral of the story, make sure your NIB iMac has its firmware updated before you try to install OSX on it

Congrats. I've got the rev. b of the original bondi imac only mine is scratched, dinged, and has minor breakage inside , and also no longer has it's stock cpu. 333mhz sounded better.

P.S.
Nevermind that's it's like a third-hand computers (at least two previous owners).
