Apple's Iconic iMac G4 (ft. Hrutkay Mods) - Vintage Apple Vault #6

[@yogadebra]

I found my G4 in front of the dumpsters on a walk with my friend! Brought it inside, turned it on and it worked perfectly! I display it and use it for music and the occasional email. I feel honored to be so fortunate to have this along with my 2010 MacBook Pro and iPad and iPhone. Mac is the only one for me.

[@annjrue]

This was the computer that got me into Apple. I was pretty heavily a die-hard PC guy before hand. Many years ago, I found this channel and watched the death out of the Vintage Apple Tours. Couple years later, I saw one of these on Craigslist with the Pro Speakers for $25! I picked it up that day and still use it for managing my music library, since the iTunes it has actually works. It's a great computer and easily one of the best Apple computers of all time. Love these videos! Keep 'em comin'!

The iMac G4 was the mac to start it all. When i was 12, i picked up up locally just because of how amazing it looked, Before that, i only use Windows, but it made me change my mind. From that day on, i started collected "vintage" apple products. Although my parents didnt like the idea, i still loved doing it. My iMac G4 still holds strong and will always be part of my collection.

[@joelallen9275]

Great video. We have a fully functional 15” iMac G4 in our kitchen. We’ve had it since 2002 and still has its pro speakers etc. It’s a beautiful machine and how the screen swivels is still amazing.

[@cjsebes]

I have two 17-inch iMac G4s. I brought one to work and left it on the receptionist's desk. (We don't have a receptionist.) I use it to play music in the lobby/kitchen area when we have a production happening in the building. But more often I use it to scan timecode-noted scripts when I engineer voice-over sessions. The only scanner we have is old as dirt which happens to work with my iMac G4. Last week we had a shoot and I overheard two crew members commenting on how cool it was to see the old machine fully functional. I keep the other one next to my workbench in the basement and use it as an audio player while I work on my other Mac finds. Thank you for another great video!

The 2002 iMac G4 Widescreen was a very important part of my childhood. All my friends would come home and we would play Otto-Matic (which by the way came pre-installed). The old System 7 PowerMacintosh upgraded to Mac OS 9 went to my bedroom when I was 6 years old (2003), because this one became the main computer.

[@shaunbrowne3963]

I bought mine for my son, as his university computer, at a used computer store in Toronto, in 2008. It’s has a 1.25 processor, 20 inch monitor, and all the OEM equipment. It does not have a wireless card, sadly. It got my son through 3 years of a 4 year degree, and then he migrated to a Mac Book Pro. It still works, running OS 10.5.8, even the CD/DVD drive still authors content. It’s a distinctive machine, and lives in the attic, waiting to be brought back to life again!

[@AvidSurvivalist]

I have a 700 MHz G4 with 512 MB ram and a superdrive, I loved that thing when I first got it. Still have too.

[@oddball6996]

The iMac G4 was my first modern Mac. Growing up I had some hand me down badly outdated Macs, but had always had a PC as our main “modern” computer. Heading off to college I saw the commercial for the iMac G4 in 2002 and begged my Grandma, who had just bought me a new PC the previous year, to get it for me. I cherished this computer for many years, until I let go of it in 2011 when I didn’t think I had any further use for it. I almost immediately regretted my decision and several years later decided I was going to purchase another one off eBay. I looked for the same model I had before, 800mhz, 15 inch with 768mb of ram or better. I found one! When it arrived and I turned it on I noticed it had a dead pixel in the exact same area my previous iMac had, I looked at the serial number...it was the SAME Mac I had sold years earlier...Daisy was destined to come back to me and I will never let her go again!

I remembered that a company sell a motherboard to modern standards and run Windows XP, vista and 7. Also I've got one but my dad decided to against it. Also a guy makes lamps with broken iMac G4's and they look awesome.

[@doq]

There was an iMac G4 put in the alt ed classroom about halfway through my 8th grade year. I think it was a 15 inch. But at the time I hadn't seen such an odd machine; having been a PC user my whole life all I knew were beige towers and Dell Optiplexes. So when it came in I got to set it up and tinker around with it. I din't even know what a PowerPC was at the time and admittedly 8th grade me cared very little because this was a time when Leopard was still relevant and G4s could still natively run the modern web. Later on my tinkering ended up landing me into the "advanced computers" course, which was an all-Mac class. I ended up nearly failing because I left a swear word in my final project. I finally get to revitalise that fascination for vintage Apple machines as about a year ago I bought a 15 inch PowerBook G4 from the university surplus that looked kinda sad. So I made it not sad. (btw 12 inch PowerBook G4 episode when?)

[@XzTS-Roostro]

My sixth grade teacher had an iMac G4 on her desk, and she was the only one in the school that had one since she was also the lead IT tech in the school itself.

[@hillstones]

My sister gave me her early 2003 iMac 17-inch 1GHz model, the version prior to the USB 2.0 model. Pretty cool iMac. I heavily upgraded it to 2GB RAM, bigger hard drive, faster SuperDrive, added the AirPort Extreme card, and also added the internal Bluetooth card. It was the first model to feature internal Bluetooth, but only available as a Build-to-Order add-on from Apple. I got the Bluetooth card from eBay and the Bluetooth antenna was already pre-installed in the iMac. Only the board was needed. It was pretty cool because the iMac G4 could then have a wireless Apple Keyboard and wireless Apple mouse. I used it for a few years and later sold it on eBay and made good money on it with all the upgrades.

[@TravisNewton1]

I really want to get one of these for my collection. It's absolutely beautiful. I remember using one in high school back when they were new and one of the teachers used them so we could use something other than Windows and actually see what was out there. My favourite machine in my collection so far is the black MacBook.

While, I love my 20 inch imac with its PowerPC G5 and use it every week. Yet, the 20 inch G4 imac still has a special place in my heart. Hope, to someday add one to my apple computer collection.

In around 2008 I managed to stumble upon a student selling his fully boxed and original end of the line iMac G4, a 20 inch model with the speedy processor. It was a fantastic machine and I used it constantly for 6 years. Sadly the screen got damaged during a move and it wrote it off, although in hindsight I should have kept the thing as the parts would be sorely in demand now. Fantastic machine.

They were and still are an iconic and a true piece of art in computer history. I recently bought the 20inch model in an excellent condition and with its original box and everything. I am installing Mac OS 10.5.4 while i am typing this. Is going to be used as a jukebox and placed somewhere in my living room.

[@cenewton3221]

I have a 17 inch 1.25 Ghz 1.5GB, and a 15 inch 700 Mhz 256GB iMac G4. The 15 inch must be an original release I guess, as it has the factory OS 9.2 / OS X 10.1.5 systems on it. I haven't looked it up to know really but I do know 10.1.x was pretty much the first actual OS X release. What amazes me about these machines is not only the out of the box design but how that design and it's implementation has held up over time. Not that any others afterward shared in it, but simply that, the pivoting stainless steel arm mechanisms all still work, 17 years onward without a hitch. When was the last time you saw one sagging that wouldn't stay in place? They probably exist but I haven't seen one. That, my friend, is excellence in design AND execution. One in that the mechanical outlast the technical. Brilliant. Oh, and yes they both work just as they did then. In fact, the 17 inch being more powerful and running Tiger can still run Ten4Fox and browse decently. And the 15" original still runs a few old school games on it and OS 9 runs the long lost AfterDark Twisted screensaver LOL. Well done Apple.

This video was a ton of fun to watch. I have eight (!) iMac G4s. One 17" second generation, the rest 15" first generations. I came across a guy who got them from a school auction and found that he didn't have the capacity to restore them all, so I got them for a song. The 15'ers are very grungy and covered in sharpie marker, while the 17" is pristine. They're a lot of fun to use. I can't help but be sad that the modern Internet is tough to browse on them, and I wish it was easier to mod the display's input to accept other standards. There is a well-documented HDMI mod out there, but I don't know if I have the stomach to try it... but it would be really cool to stick a Raspberri Pi 4 in one of these.

[@therealhardrock]

iMacs are generally designed with the idea of looking like monitors without computers, but here they created a monitor with a conspicuously large base for it to sit on. An iMac should have a look that makes people unfamiliar with iMacs say "there's the monitor, but where's the computer?" Of course, in the old days when people were being introduced to computers for the first time, they were constantly mistaking the monitor for the computer because that's where all the stuff they see the computer doing is. So smart learning had to be un-learned when the iMac was introduced.

Its a perfect example of what you'd expect an Apple Product to be.

What model has video component connections? I thought I saw one in this video.

You might be looking at the 2.5mm Pro Speaker port. It kind of looks like a component connection, but it isn't. You can achieve s-video and composite video with a Mini-VGA adapter.
