History of the eMac

- Now in this video we’re going to cover the eMac, but it’s important to note that this product was actually a spinoff of the iMac G3. So in order to fully understand the eMacs place in the market, we’re going to cover the iMac as well. So let’s begin by turning the clock back to 1998, when the personal computer industry was turned upside down with the introduction of the iMac. You see, personal computers were becoming more and more popular, both in the education setting and for personal home use. People were starting to understand and realize that these fantastic machines could cut production time, make life easier by offering information at the touch of a finger, and open lines of communication they had never experienced, and all for a pretty affordable price. Computers at the time were essentially boxes of technology that weren’t expected to serve an aesthetic purpose, but rather a functional purpose. So although they got the job done, they were all pretty ugly and boring to look at. But in 1998, the concept of the personal computer was about to change forever. And it was all thanks to the iMac G3. This machine was a revolutionary product that featured a colorful egg-shaped design that was so unusual that it appeared to be from a another planet. This new machine also featured a USB port instead of the Serial Bus connector that was standard at the time. There was one thing it was missing, though, and that was a floppy drive. Instead it had a CD drive, and other computer manufacturers followed suit which eventually led to the floppy drive becoming obsolete. So the iMac proved to be an extremely important product for Apple, especially considering it saved them from near-bankruptcy.

We are about to pass 90,000 subs on this channel! The growth of this community has been incredible and I cannot thank you all enough. I deeply appreciate all your love and support!
Apple Explained hi
Congratulations! Happy to be a part of the big 90,000!
Apple Explained Instead of doing the next "History of" video, I think you should do a special video about history of your channel to celebrate that.
Congratulations!
Apple Explained and I'm proud to be one of them!
Story time:
I had one for at least 4-5 years growing up. I got this from 2010 from an uncle of mines and he offered it as a gift for me and my siblings. He had a few since a school he was at was throwing these away (he kept like 5-6 of them but ended up giving each one to a family member). This computer was the one that introduced me to the world of Apple computers and its OS software. I first utilized itunes specifically for downloading music online and also imovie as where i downloaded tons of movies online. My entire 8th,9th,10th,11th and 12th grade was basically in this E Mac since it had all my photos,videos, and songs from when i was in high school. It had so many memories of me and my family and friends. Tons of friends i used to have and friends i lost in the past. So the year i graduated (which was 2015) was also the last time my E Mac worked until one day around fall (August to be exact) it wouldn't turn on anymore and i took it to a repair shop (but the bastard couldn't fix it, he told me to just buy another one online). So i decided to keep my old E Mac computer in a box with a bunch of old CDs, photos, and other items i had as memories of when i was in high school as well as the trips i took with my family and friends. I removed the hard drive that was on it (it was 160GB, but man that was all i needed to hold my teenage years on it) and bought another E Mac a few months afterwards. And then when it arrived, i swapped the hard drive (well i didn't, i payed someone else i knew to swap it) and when i took it home...i saw the videos,songs, and pictures of my past. Nowadays my siblings use it for downloading music,watching movies, and editing videos for some weddings and quinceñeras (sweet 16s) for others that need help. It was weird writing this because i feel like there's not many people who are gonna read this but to whom may be reading this, thanks and i really appreciate it. It means alot to post this (and i don't mean to sound emotional or anything) but it really was an important device to my family because it holds so much memories and every time i see it it's like a time capsule to a different time that me and my siblings were in. It was a special Mac that i will always enjoy and cherish.
Thanks for sharing your memories with us, I appreciate reading it :)
Aw
How much free time do you have to write this?
holy crap this guy just wrote the holy bible
Hit it with the classic alt-option-p and r
But the iPad still doesn't come with a calculator app.
Lol
OH its true all right
Tyler Cameron what ? iPads have the Calculator App
MrVercettti89 No it does not but the search bar does when asked an equation
Carl Manaloto or siri
I remember using those ancient eMacs way back in elementary school! Then when I first used the iMacs of those times, I was blown away. Good times.
Same
The eMacs and there aqua UI were the best
haha, "ancient" oh boy, to me they were a super state of the art machine, when they came into our classes at Uni ;) Well, that was around 2003 ;)
That feel when you remember when your school got in an all new apple IIgs when it was cutting edge
same, I was introduced to Apple and Mac thanks to elementary and middle school. Kindergarten, I remember using the G3 or similar Macs, the teacher had her Macbook and I also remember seeing Netscape on the dock. I prolly also messed with the Eject button too xD
This video is more of history of Apple education than eMac
Absolutely.
iAppsolutely.

Well, the history of the eMac is the history of Apple Education.
I remember that MacWorld issue. Everyone was so concerned that it didn't have ADB, Mac serial, or an SCSI port, let alone the lack of a floppy drive. Apple got rid of all the legacy ports (like with the new MacBook Pro) and forced people to use USB. What did you see one year later? Many USB devices had translucent plastics in different colours.
At my high school we use chromebooks and they are really bad, slow, and frustrating to use.
we can't get viruses or download crap from the google play store
We use iPads, Windows 8 pro PCs, and Leveno Chromebooks
My school use slow pentium 4 (windows 7) PCs
We used to use iMac computers but my school switched to Windows back in January 2019. I miss the times when I could go on photo booth with friends when we had imacs
@@planetearth8052 there was a kid back in my school in 2012 with a unibody macbook, everyone was always messing around with his photo booth app lmao
Didn't even know this even existed... This turns the cool factor of this video up! Love this channel!
They had tonnes of these at my school.
same
I owned 2 of them and they were a great computer... Very heavy though lol... :-)...
i miss seeing all the old, yellowed eMacs from my middle school back in the day
Too true lol... :-)...
@Anonymous User LMFAO, I have no memory of typing this comment, fucking ambien.
eMac = Electronic Big Mac
Dream
eMac = Excellent Mac And Cheese 🧀
But all macs are electronic..?
Integra DIY wow!
It's eMac tonight...
Did you even watch the video, bro? Itv's a fucking egg, not a sandwich, maybe watch the video next time before you comment.
This was an extremely well done video. As someone who is going to school to be a teacher, there is an appreciation of being able to utilize technology to help people learn. When we first started communicating we used technology of the time to do it more efficiently i.e. written words. Computers, tablets whatever it's no different. This was very informative thank you for your time.
At my school up until this year we used MacBook pros but this year we switched to chromebooks and all the students still complain about it
we used to use macbook airs that werent that old now we have to use chromebooks from 2011 for some reason
We use windows 7 pcs in our school
Chromebooks are garbage but they are cheap, and I guess they are serviceable enough for what a school needs
When I was in high school, we had computers with Windows NT, I had just upgraded to Windows XP at home from Windows 98 and I had a 56K dial up connection until my sophomore year when we FINALLY got high speed cable internet @ 1.5 Mbps. Only the teachers had laptops and they all had Windows NT. My first laptop was a Tandy 1100 notebook which my stepdad got at his job but didn't use.
Times have changed... :-)...
I still use an eMac in my kitchen to listen to music and look at recipes.
It still working?
Does anybody else think eMac sounds like a cheap chinese knockoff?
I think it sounds like the text editor emacs...
Yep, thats what I thought the video was about.
yes lol
ya
That’s what I thought it was when I clicked on this video xD
It’s crazy to see this. I remember we had eMac in high school and I loved the flat glass, but my god they were slow even when we had to use them. This was 2003-2006 but I’m sure they had the G4’s from the first round.
I’ve only seen an eMac once in my life, the only Apple devices I used in early elementary school were 2007 MacBooks.
Cyclone Storm really ?? all i had in elementary school was the 2004 emac
Thanks Greg! I never knew eMacs existed. I only know iMacs 😁
Jason Ong You never used it at school?
Sid never man. We always used PC.
Jason Ong oh, because everyone i knew used emacs, but some used imacs
Sid good for you guys. No budget I guess. Just some ugly cheap and buggy Windows PC hahahaha
Man I have one sitting behind me in my home office. It was the first Mac I used back in 2002.
2:43 The best looking iMac to this day. I really wish they continued this one.
It’s so cool!
I remember the eMac. It was a fine system. Used it quite a bit at school, right into my High School Years.
I had an emac, my dad got it while he worked at the uni. Still works today.
Itamar Baum do u use it often???
Me too, they seemed to have a lot of them in the college my dad worked in, along with lots of G4 and G5 iMacs. They have pretty good speakers actually, I basically just use it for playing music because it isn't fast enough to connect to the internet anymore! The only thing is it's pretty loud; the hum its fan makes can be heard anywhere in our house.
I had one, but the PSU to the crt failed and it went kaput
then this year my 2008 imac had a psu failure
all my real macs killed themselves
c0gsthen3rd It's a real shame Apple makes absolutely no effort to support their older machines, they even actively try to get rid of them. The surprising thing is there's still a lot of love for their old stuff. I'm only 20 but I've been surrounded by Apple hardware for as long as I can remember: I have the eMac, an iBook G3, PowerBook G3 & G4, iMac 2012 and a modern MacBook Air, so there's still people who use them around the place.
I don't use it often, however there is something about the quality of sound from the speakers that is simply nostalgic. So I use it for music sometimes.
I just remember being in 5th grade and our school got 50 iMac’s and I loved them so much. I wish they’d bring that design back
You do awesome vids! Keep it up!
I remember the eMac. I heard that up until a year or two ago, the elementary/middle school I went to still used them
2:22 Googel! _Beta_ those were the days =D
Lord Cekrom *2:21
2:17
My old elementary school had a bunch of iMacs and like 4 emacs.
My school used vim rather than emacs
Swagons When i was in Kinder and First every computer was an iMac in computer class
And we playing typing zoo on abcya
We had a expensive school and the teachers were nice
Then the school shut down in 2016 and merged with another school and the old school turned into a art school and the new school had crappy pc’s and mean teachers
In my classroom there was iMacs but they were never even used by anybody
The eMac was my first Apple product ever. I had saved money for some months and when the time came to buy my first computer, I did not know about the eMac. I bought the version with 80GB HDD, 256 MB RAM with SuperDrive. A few months later I upgraded the RAM to 1 GB. I loved it, it looked elegant and stylish. Even the box was beautiful.
Nice video 😊👍. Love you Videos😃. Have a great weekend . Cheers from Denmark
Throughout Junior High and High School we had these Computers. Love them remember playing Nanosaur on them lol and the Mario Learning to Type Games! Great Times! Awesome Coverage!
Nanosaur, yes!!! And Otto Matic and Diemos Rising
@@WTR86 Oh yeah nice... Ah the Classics
They used to have these at my school, I remember putting a magnet on the screen and turning the entire display orange
My Favorite Channel PERIOD!
Had the 2003 version when I was a child, 1GHz G4 with combo drive, I loved it, it was my first Mac!
I recently bought one of these for my collection and I love it! Such a cool machine.
Great stuff. My daughter’s school just received a grant and many of her classes have nearly 30 IPads at the ready for students...This was part of the Dream...
Thank you, Greg, for another extremely well-researched documentary-video. I’d never heard of an eMac before! I was able to switch to Apple only in 2013, so I missed so much of the history. I really enjoy your videos.
I used to use these from 2004 to 2010 and I haven't seen or heard about them again until today when I looked it up, followed by this video mysteriously showing up in my recommendations a few hours later.
In 2009 I remember the eMacs in the graphic design department room of some community college I was in , I used to going into the graphic design room to do extra work for assignments when I didn’t have access to the Animation Room.
Since 2003 I always covered a Mac computer but never bought one , I Uesd to go into Apple stores and play around with them ,I’ve bought iPhones and iPods, iPads since 2008, but It wasn’t untill 2017 until I bought my first Mac Computer , and this was a 2015 MacBook Air.
Brings back memories of my Elementary school, these were in the classrooms into the 2010's, relegated from the main computer lab. However, when I was in 3rd grade we got chromebooks (they were being rolled out top to mid), and eventually all the eMacs were gone.
Nice to see a more obscure topic covered on this channel, and all the younger viewers in the comments exclaiming they had no idea this even existed. Neither did I until 2014, when I found one at a thrift store, brought it home, and lifted it up onto the top shelf of my desk where it remains today. Yes they're heavy, but not so bad compared to the 21" Apple Studio Display standalone Trinitron CRT, the heaviest Apple product ever made - and I scored one of those at a thrift store as well!
The CRT reproduces colors better than the early LCDs of the time. Wasn't until the Aluminum Cinema Displays and first-gen MacBook Pros that LCDs finally caught up, and even those displays still couldn't match the true blacks of the CRT.
The eMacs are great for PowerPC-era games, especially the 2005 1.42 GHz model with the ATI Radeon 9600 graphics card - the model to look for to run Mac OS X Leopard also.
I still remember when my elementary school upgraded from the iMacs with the different colors to the eMacs we had a huge computer lab where we would go once a week to learn about computers etc. It was neat.
I still have my 2002 800mhz eMac its awesome for playing old games like The Sims. All these years later and it still runs just fine.It is worth noting the raster shift wasn't the only problem they faced.The first 1ghz ATI models had capacitors that often went bad after 5 years or so. Apple never covered the problem but our shop had several schools bring them in to be recapped. Still it was an amazing computer for its day
A friend bought me a Bondi Blue for a buck at a nearby tag sale! Ten years ago. I loved the DVD drive!
My elementary school had these in the computer lab. It was pretty much Kid Pix, Starfall, and Free Rice. My Kindergarten class, we would do rotations between different toys and the sandbox, and we also had a Bondi Blue iMac G3 with OS 9 running on there, and we would be able to play Oregon Trail on it. That was 2004-05. Nowadays, it's just Windows 10 PCs/iPads they tend to use.
Damn the nostalgia
This was always my favorite Mac growning up! 😃 (in fact, I still have mine and it runs like a champ for a computer of its age!)
I've been waiting for this.
I've still got an eMac G4, as the first Mac I ever bought for myself as a main desktop. It's the 1.42 GHz model with a 160 GB hard drive, dual-layer SuperDrive, and configured with 2 GB of RAM and an AirPort Extreme card, and currently runs Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Right now it's tucked away in my closet, but it still works, and once in a while I do pull it out to have some fun with it. I can even edit standard-definition video on it pretty well, using iMovie HD 6.
And regarding Apple devices for educational use, I work for an electronics recycling/reselling company that often gets electronic devices from school districts, and we get a LOT of iPads. On the Apple side we also often get iMacs (currently the aluminum Intel models made since 2007) and MacBook Airs (2011-2017 models), along with 13" and 15" MacBook Pros (largely pre-Retina models) and white polycarbonate MacBooks. On the non-Apple side, we also get a LOT of Chromebooks, along with some Windows laptops and several Windows desktops and thin clients.
Amazing video, keep going on!!
When i was in elementary school we had eMacs and iMac G5's in the computer lab (second grade.) Then I moved schools and that district only had PCs for years. Then when I went into Jr. High every kid was assigned an iPad 3 LTE to take home with them and use during school for homework. They were actually awesome for us kids at the time because you could do so much so easily. Then when I went into freshmen year all kids were assigned MacBook Airs to take home and use at school for work. I'm now a senior and still have the same macbook. It's held up pretty well over the years and I still enjoy using it. Most other school districts around me use chromebooks or thinkpads so i'm really happy with the MBA 11".
E too will die before you learn how to use it’s hard to use hardware
Woah, that my hat on top of the eMac at 3:51! I miss my high school’s computer lab…
I got my hands on two 2005 eMacs in 2012. They came from my local college (changed to a university in 2011). I’m in the process of restoring both of them.
I bought an eMac in 2002 and it still works in 2024. Of course what it can do nowadays is pretty limited, but I use it as a night-light/music/ambient screen-saver gallery in my bedroom. It has a relaxing sounding fan, which I use as white noise for sleeping. Another cool thing about the eMac is it came with the MacRun game, Captain Bumper, which my sons loved to play when they were little. In fact, my son who is now 23, asked if I still had Captain Bumper, because he wanted to play it again after 17 years. So I lent him the eMac and he beat Captain Bumper in a couple of hours : )
Thanx for sharing 🤗
Love your videos, that cover parts that I never knew of apple😍
my elementary school in the 1990s used macintoshes running OS6-8. First time I saw an iMac was in middle school. Don't remember ever seeing eMacs tbh, but they were probably around when I was in high school.
Darn. The lab pictured at 10:13 looks a bit like the first elementary school I went to in about 2007. The eMac truly was revolutionary, in a way, since it was my first experience with OS X, even though I didn't realize it at the time (I knew nothing beyond Windows XP, since all of my computers at home ran that OS back then); I think that it helped to foster my now lifelong obsession with apple products and their software. Growing up in that time, school technology really has come a long way, and even though I don't live somewhere that provides (or even requires, for that matter) students with their own personal iPad, MacBook, Chromebook, etc., technology really has become ingrained in our minds from a very young age. Such as being taught how to get around the OS in kindergarten and first grade, getting email accounts in second grade and emailing one another random messages, and learning some basic "programming" in Scratch in around fourth or fifth grade. I remember when my second elementary school got a cart full of iPad 2's when I was in fifth grade; it was my first experience with an iPad outside of a store demo setting, and I just felt amazed at its pure capability and how magical it was. I mean, nowadays, some teachers don't even allow you to hand your assignments in in-person anymore, whereas that might not have been imaginable 10 years ago. It's crazy to see how far we've come in such a short amount of time, and I think Apple has a lot to do with that.
I had a TI 994A, beige, 16K, hooked it up to a tv(old type) and learned BASIC programming and also had a tape recorder for it. I loved Parsec, The Attack, Cars and QBert.
Christmas 1983.
Nice video like always 😄👍
Thanks for the vid! Never knew it ever existed
Simply great as usual. I am a fan of your channel.
The iPad was used by our primary school back in 2012. We also had laptops with XP and W7 and I have to say that the laptops were much more versatile and help to introduce me to computing. You really can’t replace that with a touchscreen.
Happy 100,000 subs
Great video, I loved it. Thanks! (:
First new Mac I ever had. The CRT was gorgeous and I thought it was such a nice progression of the iMac G3 design. It was heavy as hell though.
Very cool history video. I was always wondering about those older eMacs. I've only seen one, once in my life. Glad, I understand what it was to be in the Apple line up. Also, I am glad they got rid of it. LOL, it was fugly. (:
I still have an old eMac sat in my office. Very outdated, but still works great
9:18 my school had this and this is how I got interested in Apple. I started with a 2017 iPad 5, having later a 2016 iPhone SE, and now I have the 2020 iPad 8, 2020 iPhone SE, AirPods 2, and an inherited 2015 Apple Watch Sport from my mom. And I’m planning on improving both the AirPods and the Apple Watch.
My old primary school had a mixture of iPads and windows laptops (no chrome books as of the time I left it). There would be a trolley full of laptops and another one full of iPads. The laptops would be Toshiba Satellites (don’t know which model cause I didn’t bother to look) and Dell latitude 3490s and the iPads would be 2012 4th gen ones. Those were fun times and at my current school the only computers I use are Dell optiplex 7010s.
in freshman gt there was two macs in the back along with 5 dell desktops and i prayed i wasn’t the last to get back there because they were always somehow slower than the dell’s
"they continue to lower the price of the iPad" Future Apple raised it substantially, lol
The first computer I ever used was a eMac in elementary school.
I had the 2005 eMac as a kid. Thing was legit
7:02 great quality
I wish Apple releases Xcode for iPad, that would be amazing.
Unless you connect a Bluetooth keyboard, don't try to code ANYTHING on a software keyboard. Because there is human error, you are more likely to make a typing error on a software keyboard than a physical keyboard.
xXMaster StrikeXx I know that’s not actually something practical to do. But I live in Brasil, and Macs are too expensive. I don’t have the money to buy a new one, that’s why I’m still using my old mid 2012 MacBook Air.
iPads in the other hand are way more affordable and could be a great idea to teach programming since the playground app is terrible for that.
@@WolfiiDog13 That is true. I just can't imagine kids doing a lot of coding without a Bluetooth keyboard. I can imagine, however, that the school would provide iPad keyboards so then kids can proficiently code as if they were on a computer. This would also help motor skills and typing skills, as we use keyboards (physical or otherwise) pretty much everyday.
@Douglas Ceretta Hamerski You don't need a new one. Macs from 2012 works fine.
I remember in preschool they gave these to everyone for free for no reason. It had some sweet pre installed software like kidz pics an ms paint but funner. I don’t have mine anymore but I know my cousin has one with some issues.
I just found one of these at the dump today. And it works :D
Great That it works
I love the eMac my family bought one in 2004 and headed up to 2014 we had to throw it away cuz the we couldn't take it when we were moving.
In Pre-K there were 4 of these in my class.
I'd never heard of an eMac until this video. I figured it was some prototype or something that had never been released to the public... Didn't realize Apple actually sold so many of them! Cool video!
Had an Emac, loved this compy :) Second Apple favorite , next to the g3 AIO :)
I went to a school district that had a wonderfully high technology budget, and so when these bad boys dropped, our elementary school received over 150 of these in a month: 35-40 for the computer lab, and another 3 per classroom, for 37 classrooms, and another four for the library. Under the table, the computer lab teacher gave me a whole ass power macintosh 7220 with a monitor and speakers, and my first grade teacher gave me a desk, which I gratefully used for about ten years.
back in like ~2011 my school had one of these in a computer lab, I never saw anyone use it but it was just sitting in the back, I'm sad that I wasn't able to use it
I own one and it's a great asset to my Apple shelf next to my imac g 5
I've only really heard of schools on the West Coast using technology in place of study materials like paper, pens, and textbooks. I live in New York and my school tries and fails to get ahead with technology, giving us (the cheapest) Chromebooks, but apparently deeming iPads too expensive and fragile with little use. Students are required to provide their own styluses for the Chromebooks. We often use unpaid versions of web software like Kami and have shifted away from Google Classroom in favor of a locally created clone which is only buggier, clunkier, and slower.
It's interesting to see how Apple and other companies are trying to bring technology to the education market, and I'm all for it, but it could be awhile before we see it widespread outside of Silicon Valley.
I have one of these. a 1.2Ghz model that used DDR ram. Have it maxed to 2GB ram. Unfortunately it did not dodge the infamous capacitor plague of the early 2000's. Noticed two blown caps that had completely vented while cleaning it. Seems to run fine despite that, but yeah, I'm not gonna run it for long like that. Gonna have to get the mobo recapped at some point. The cheap $10 soldering iron/vacuum pump combo I have though is not up for dealing with that though. I was able to recap some old TVs with that just fine, but it has trouble with computer motherboards so gonna wait on that one. :P
I use my iPad for everything that has to with school, it’s not a perfect tablet, and it freaks me out how restrictive iOS can be, but it at the same time, it’s really easy and fun to use
Apples idea of “affordable” seems to differ from a lot of others.
At the time it was cheap.
I'm pretty sure he's talking about the iPad
You're right! By 2002, You could easily get a Celeron PC with 256 megs of RAM for ~$500.
True. But if you wanted a really good and reliable PC you had to pay for it. I had one specifically designed for me that cost $2500. And while it was a powerful PC that lasted me ten years, I still had issues with it. I've been an iMac user since 2012 and I can say that machine still runs like a charm with no issues since I took it out of the box, and it's far more powerful than my last PC from 2002. As long as Apple can maintain quality, I'll never be going back to the traditional PC. And finally, a $550 PC is junk. Cheap parts and cheap plastic, means unreliability and low lifespan.

Generally, I agree with most of your comments in this video. The e-mac computers grew out of the original i-mac computers which, because of their high level of sales saved Apple Computer. However, when the i-mac came out most in elementary, middle school, and high school education were ordering the G3 All-in-One computer from apple. This had a 15 inch Sony CRT, with built-in floppy drive, CD drive, 100 Mb zip drive, and Ethernet. Plus it also had ports for video capture, two headphones, printer, keyboard, and mouse, along with three internal open PCI card slots.
While, I preferred the G3 All-in-One computer to the i-mac model because using its PCI slots you also could add USB and Firewire ports giving you a system that would work with both old and new products. Yet, it just was not nice and cool looking like the i-mac's were.
Used to have one of these ages ago!
I remember using the emac when I was in kindergarten and 1st grade as well as the iMac g3 good times
In Singapore, (certain) primary and (most) secondary schools are now using 10 inch iPads with the Pencil!
My elmentry school was great they had Mac book airs white plastic unibody iMacs and newer aluminum clamshell ones. And some teachers got 5k iMacs it was a neat school
eMac Was Used for Education Schools. Quite Amazing Design Too!
I went to the blessed solanus kasey center and they have a eMac in their museum.
wow that's cool :)
I remember the controversy when my local library blew their entire computer budget on two Emacs, when instead they could've gotten seven PCs for the same price. This was in upstate new york where not everyone had or could afford AOL and people came to the library to use the internet. The lines were long and the time allotted per person short.
But the Mac was faster so….. it was TOTALLY worth it!
My middle school got hundreds of these during my 7th grade year when they came out, we had those and the sunflower Mac as well... I liked the sunflower one way more!
I like that!
They're playing Jamaican music on Radio 1.
Couldn't escape this thing in elementary school. Had to do Headsprout every week on it. In my first grade classroom, I also saw a classic Mac with a color display. Despite being fucking 6 at the time, I really gravitated towards the Mac classic (and even a 2000 machine somewhere else) over the eMac.
i used to have the 700mhz G4 model back in 2004 and that was my first ever computer. i got rid of it shortly after i got my powerbook g4 for chrismas in 2005
Crazy! I just got an eMac out of the school dumpster a couple days ago
