Performance of this iMac G3?


Recommended Posts

I know someone whos selling an iMac for ?275;

Just over 2 years old

Apple Imac G3 PPC 700Mhz

256Mb Ram

60Gbyte disk

CDRW

Internal modem

Lan

USB

Firewire

Would that be ok to run things like Panther, Photoshop, and modern applications? I'll be buying it to have a play with more than anything, as a cheap way of seeing if I eventually want to spend that ?2k on a G5.

16 mb vram

it should run pretty well if u give it ram. and since it supports quartz extreme it shouldn't be too slow to run panther.

Is a bargain for the price. If you don't have it, I will. Am only over the water from you....
Hehe no chance, its mine :D
Yeah add more RAM to it and it'd be a pretty decent runner I think, bit of a bargain too! :)

You can add more ram to them? I thought the iMac's were non-upgradable.

theres 2 slots for ram. but if u buy it with 256, i would both of them have been taken

Luckily, just the one is in there.

Got Panther installed now, will be buying some more memory after a few performance tests :)
