Share this with a Linux fan! Specs Below!

Watch a 23-year-old iMac G4 come back to life-now running Linux.

We wiped the original OS X install and got Linux running on it-lightweight, fast, and perfect for reviving old hardware.

This is the iMac G4-Apple’s 2002 desktop that looked like it came from the future. It’s known for its swivel display, sleek dome base, and yes, those iconic external speakers. This was known as the Sunflower Mac!

Specs:
15-inch LCD on an adjustable arm
PowerPC G4 processor (700 MHz to
1.25 GHZ)
Up to 1 GB of RAM
Built-in CD-RW or SuperDrive
USB 1.1, FireWire 400, Ethernet
Transparent globe-style Apple Pro
Speakers (digital audio via mini-jack)

The speakers? Still sound incredible!
