I just got a free and totally working iMac G4 Flat Panel (15", 800MHz). I wiped the drive and installed Tiger 10.4.6 and ran all the updates. I connects to the Internet and even opens up the Apple website! Of course, it opens Macintosh Garden...
But, I'm really not familiar with these machines at all - my Mac experience ends with the SE/30. So... what should I do with it?
I mean, I'm not nostalgic about it at all. I never used these back in the day. But I do really like the form factor of this unit. I think the flat panel iMacs with the 1/2 sphere body is an iconic look.
Maybe use it as an Apple Share server kinda thing for my older macs, assuming I can get them on the network...?
