uh.. imacs don't have 'external' PCI slots. The only ones are on internal bus and you can't realistically modify the motherboard.

The iMac G4 has ZERO PCI internal SLOTS. A SLOT is a place you can add a PCI card. The iMac has NONE.

It has an internal AGP bus, but not SLOT for AGP.

It does have at least one IDE bus, but may have two (one for HD and one for CD/DVD).

Sorry for using a bad choice of words.. what I meant was there is (or at least I think there is) a pci bus and if anything.. devices that take up 'slots' on that bus.

There might be a PCI controller on the imac, and if there is, it is possible to add PCI slots, but it's not anything someone in the right mind would do.
