The ability to make videos, music, podcasts, photos, or any other creative endeavor is pretty much frictionless, now-modern Macs are set up so you can be up and running in no time. Technology has progressed so much since 2002, and we take for granted what computers are capable of doing. Yes, times have changed, processors are much more powerful now, and RAM is less of an issue, but we still miss the days when upgrading our Macs didn’t mean buying a new one. And now that Apple silicon has the RAM built into the chip, after-purchase upgrades are totally out of the question.
MAC G4 QUICKSILVER UPGRADE
The other slot is for an AirPort Wi-Fi card-wireless connectivity wasn’t standard back then.Įventually, a few years after the iMac G4 was discontinued, Apple decided that consumer-level Macs would either not have user-upgradable RAM or it would be very difficult to make the upgrade yourself. The iMac G4 has a user-accessible RAM slot under the base. But no, Apple took a whole new approach, with the core components in a domed case, a chrome arm that stuck out from the top of the dome, and an LCD attached to the top. Apple could’ve taken the easy route and gone with a design that mirrored the original Bondi Blue iMac except with a smaller footprint (in fact Steve Jobs made a joke slide about that during Macworld San Francisco keynote). That changed with the iMac G4, which was the first desktop Mac to use a flat-panel LCD, which is dramatically smaller and thinner than a CRT. As late as the G3 iMac in 1998, all-in-ones were designed around huge CRT displays, and Apple had to create enclosures to conceal large tubes, while at the same time looking great and providing good functionality.
MAC G4 QUICKSILVER PC
While most people associate all-in-one with the iMac, the Lisa, which even predates the Mac, was Apple’s first PC to house the display and components in a single case. Very early on in its history, Apple was known for making all-in-one computers. A gallery of the iMac G4 from every angle
