iMac G3 Ruby Unboxing and Setup (2019)

Better video than my first unboxing on my Bondi. Still pretty garbage :). Hope you enjoy!!

[@krazykat64]

Man, I wanted an iMac so bad when they first came out. Took me a couple of years to save up enough for a ruby iMac in 2000. Don’t think I ever loved a computer as much as I did that one.

[@sternkrieger1950]

So where do you find these iMacs and old Apple computers? The only iMac G3s I found locally was a Flower Power iMac G3 at a PC recycling center that wanted $100 for it, and also a fully boxed Bondi Blue for $100. They are both in good condition and working, but not sure if either is worth the price.

[@frncs.r]

I’ve always wanted one of these!

I'm gonna buy an imac G3 locally when I find one for the right price. I will probably get ruby, indigo or blueberry

[@NajeebAhmad-gs6mf]

Man where did you get it from

[@jonstechchannel]

Could you make a video on your LCD G3 you mentioned in a previous video?

[@jonstechchannel]

Andrew Barker sweet!

[@beejaegarcia2511]

Love the ruby red DV iMac G3. Shame it’s not the original ruby red keyboard and mouse, making it complete.

[@themacintoshbuyer4240]

They didn’t come with a colour matched keyboard. Strawberry “flavour” machines did. The later colours came with the keyboard that this has.

[@Hanhistoliitto]

I tried to buy a 700mhz iMac Graphite with all the original disks but the seller already sold it :(

Why not? Can’t have a hobby? And yes I do

[@patrickpowell5430]

@@themacintoshbuyer4240 You sound a little defensive. I didn't mean to attack you (if that is what I sounded like) but what with many iMacs stashed away behind other iMacs, I was wondering when you did haul them out to use them.
