Mac mini inside of an iMac G3?

[Mike Richardson]

Has anyone ever done a Mac mini inside of an iMac G3 while retaining the original CRT?

On a tray-loader you have an actual Mac-style video cable right there. All you would need to do is convert it to VGA and then to DVI. Power could be provided with a hacked cable of some sort feeding off the iMac's PSU. For the custom fit you could create a new side panel and bring the ports out to the side.

The Tray loader uses strange frequencies for the CRT, so you could try it (Especially you, since you have a warehouse full of trayloaders). It would definitely bring new life to such an old revolutionary computer.

Probably doable with SwitchResX or similar.
