i'm pimping out my imac(at least, that's what the title said). I have a g3 400 iMac, which i got for free(long story)-it came with 320 mb of ram, a 10 gb hd, and a dvd-rom
so far, i've put 768 mb of ram in it(going for a GB), and a 120 Gb HD, and i'm getting a g4 upgrade for it(prolly a 500 mhz), and i'm gonna put a superdrive in it!
i know noone prolly cares, but, oh well.
I think I think...therefore, I think I am.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to just buy a used 500MHz G4 and turn the iMac - as is - into an iTunes jukebox/'net router?

That's what I'm doing with mine (80-gig internal HD)...

I was expecting to see a pic of an iMac pimped out with fur and gold chains and stuff. Does anyone have a pic of that iMac sprayed graffiti style?

Mine's pretty much done.

It's a 1st gen iMac, it has a 600mhz Harmoni G3, firewire, Gamewizard, 120 gig 7200rpm drive, 512 megs ram, OS9.2/OSX, tribal graphics on the inside of the shell, and it LIGHTS UP with EL Cable.
