MKBHD and Snazzy Labs have been making tech videos for over a decade but you know what's even older than us? Well... a lot of things, but like, do you know what's older than our 10-year-old KZfaq channels? This 1999 iMac G3 because 2019-1999=20 and 20 is more than 10. This is the first iMac that has been sitting in a box for nearly two decades and we couldn't let it suffocate in there any longer. So sit back, relax, and enjoy this 22 minute retro unboxing experience you'll never forget-until tomorrow or maybe next week.

The inner shells of these things were made with an especially cheap plastic that turns extremely brittle over time. Being sealed in two layers of plastic inside the box might have helped it avoid the bulk of the exposure to the elements that would cause degradation-the fact that it's not _already_ cracking is a good sign, at least-but it's only a matter of time. I heard that the MacEffects guy was looking for a pristine G3 to use as a template for making replacement shells; you might want to see if you can get in touch. I can't imagine you have much of anything better to do with it.

Nope. MacsBug was discontinued when the New World Macs were introduced. What replaced them was Open Firmware. That can be invoked by restarting your G3-G5 Mac, then Command+Option+O+F on the keyboard. The 2 hidden buttons in the panel are the system Reset and Interrupt button. You pressed and held that in whenever there was a firmware update.

that was my first Mac. My first overall computer was a Packard Bell bought in mid-1995. It died in '98 and when I went to replace it I saw the iMac in the Mac section. Back then Mac's were in their own section in the way back of the computer stores almost like in a closet. I've been using macs ever since. The colors they offered just lent an air of fun to them. Also, unlike many people I loved the hockey puck mouse. It was just so different but I loved it. After OSX came out I pretty much all Mac Laptops for the longest time. I still have my TiBook.

Our school still has working iMac G3 in their photo studio (which at this point is more if a storage room xD) and they let us try one a month or so ago. It was really cool seeing that. Especially when you have the contrast to the 2015 iMacs in the room one floor below.

Think that a lot of people grew up using an early CRT based imac in primary school (1st through 3rd grade), elementary school (4th through 6th grade), Junior High (7th through 9th grade), Senior High (10th through 12th grade), or college. This is the reason why, they have a warm place in their memory. But, I am older and there were no small desktop computers even in my college's school of engineering. We only had main frame computers or mini computers (which at the time were about the size of an office desk). When the imac was new, I preferred the G3 All-in-One because it had the same processor but also included a built-in floppy drive, zip drive, CD-ROM, and ethernet port, and had three open internal PCI card bays for expansion (i.e. USB 2.0 ports, Fire-wire 400 ports, etc.).

The framerate was absolutely terrible, but it ran... and I forget the OS upgrade path we took but for some reason it couldn't go straight from the OS it was running to the version of OSX required to run WoW at the time.

My old elementary school had these when I was in K-3 in the library. The only things we did on them were STAR tests and practicing math on this real basic website. It was 2010-2011 so it was able to do it somewhat. It's too long ago to remember fully but I definitely remember the blue speaker grills and slot, but luckily we had the revised mouse instead of the puck one X'D

I acquired a 1999 graphite slot-loading iMac late last year, and upgraded it with a 128 GB Compact Flash card for a hard-drive and 1 GB of RAM (which is double the official maximum). I also just acquired a 1999 graphite clamshell iBook G3 and upgraded it with a 64 GB CF card (and boosted it to 320 MB of RAM, but I intend to bring it to the maximum 576 MB soon). Both Macs run very well, and I'm extremely happy with how they turned out.

Maybe that's an "educational" version of the iMac and came w/o hard drive; instead, they use "Net booting" from a Mac OS X Server machine to drive the "dumb machines" on the lab and concentrate the storage and CPU power on the server itself. Just a hypothesis

I just spent a while restoring an eMac (the education version). It was mostly fine, though I did (similar to this) have to replace the hard drive. They're solid machines for the most part and, plus it was a free and it's for my 4 year old kid to learn typing and play a few oldschool games on. The disassembly is pretty arduous once you're inside but so much better than modern apple gear that you don't care.
