Snippet: The Exceptional iMac G4: Ten Years Later ☇

Benj Edwards takes a look back at Apple’s highly-regarded iMac G4 for Macworld

With its innovative form factor, advanced operating system, and a then-unparalleled suite of integrated software, the iMac G4 led a new generation of consumer-grade Apple desktops that brought continued financial security to Apple during a time of transition—just as its iPod line began to heat up.

I always liked this machine, but never owned one (opting for an iBook instead). It’s hard to believe it has been around for ten years—I was at the last true Macworld Conference & Expo in New York when the 17″ model of this iMac and Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar were introduced.
