Hello everyone,
Yeah... the forum is closing. And if you're wondering why? I'd say this forum was like a red herring... I mean, there was no need for it from the beginning, and it distracted me from the main projects of the website and mission. On the other hand, we already have a Facebook group with over 2.3k members! For now, I'll leave it online in "read-only" mode (to avoid spam); because we may need it in the future, and there are some good topics here.

I want to thank everyone who joined the forum, especially Entuzio and Toysoft, for helping me moderate it and the group :) Also, stay tuned for new updates for the projects and group.

Thank you for reading,
Mohamed

iMac G3 24th anniversary!

#1 Post by Mohamed said »

Twenty-four years ago, Steve Jobs introduced the iMac G3 at WWWDC, which was the first product in Apple's iMac line (which is Apple's most successful line). Also, it was a big shift in computing history, and it was the first product Apple continued to support for five years.

So I want to say... Happy 24th birthday iMac :)

Mostly, I'm using it to run classic Mac games to get the best performance. because the emulation is pretty slow :oops:

Mine is broken now, It won't power on. I think it's a PAV board problem
