| iMac G4 1.25GHz 20-inch | |
| Posted by: antony701 on 2013-02-17 07:34:40 I know I already have two 17-inch iMac G4s (both 1.25GHz, USB 2.0). About two weeks ago, I saw the 20-inch available on eBay. Surprisingly, no one (else) was bidding for it, so I got it at the starting price.  And here's my iMac G4 corner, the "before" shot:  and the "after" shot:  Well, all those three iMac G4s are of the "USB 2.0" models, all of them are 1.25GHz PowerPC G4. The two 17-inch G4s have AirPort Extreme card installed, not the 20-inch yet. No pro speakers came with the 20-inch iMac G4. | |

| Posted by: shifuimam on 2013-02-17 21:53:52 Ah yes...one of the best Apple machines ever made. If I could figure out where to put it, I'd get one as soon as I found a good deal. Very nice! | |
| Posted by: RickNel on 2013-02-17 22:16:15 Lust lust :-* Problem for me is freight would double the cost, and something like this unlikely to come up locally before I liquidate (personally, or maybe just my collection). Rick | |
| Posted by: macman142 on 2013-02-17 23:44:19 Very nice! I'd love a 20" iMac one day... They just look well proportioned, whereas the 15" and 15" not so much (IMO). All being USB2.0 is a real bonus. | |
| Posted by: ClassicHasClass on 2013-02-18 10:36:39 I actually like the 15" better, because it's less weight on the arm. I'm starting to hear about the arms starting to sag with the heavier panels. All anecdotal, of course, but it's the same arm whether it's 15, 17 or 20. | |
| Posted by: uniserver on 2013-02-18 12:28:37 ^ agree, i had this issue with a 17" - 15" also have more of a balanced look to them. (from my perspective) | |
| Posted by: TheMacGuy on 2013-02-18 13:48:22 Personally, the widescreen looks nicer floating above the dome, but I believe this is one reason they started sagging. | |
