@@GarretClaridgeMeerkat I bet it’s because it’s a slim laptop style drive! Can’t wait to see what you do with the huge pile of speakers in the background! 😁
The high refresh rate on those old tubes is a nice treat. I was blown away when I found that out on my Blueberry G3! Turns out, that's just the nature of CRTs lol.
The idea of someone stealing your install disc binder thinking they just scored a bunch of music only to be disappointed when its just install disc when they got home and opened it is kinda hilarious.
I saw your post on Facebook of the iMac cat house and it was the most adorable thing! I've been watching you since I was about 11 years old (I'm nearly 28 now for context) so it's different seeing you take one apart without the use of a sledgehammer or pickaxe haha. These things are notoriously difficult to disassemble without breaking any of the plastic clips, particularly around the display bezel, so I wouldn't feel too bad about it. They're incredibly brittle at the best of times and this one was clearly put through the wringer already. Love the content!
Dude, I remember when you broke the blue one it was such a funny video. I remember in 2014 just watching your channel so often you literally made my childhood again, man
Hey Garret, that's really cool, seeing the disassembly, too. We gotta get you to the 100k 🔥 Happy new year dude, I'm glad you went this far after all those years!
Really enjoying your repair/reusing videos Garrett! Maybe you could harvest some of those G3 bits if you have any other iMacs. And, of course, implode that ruined CRT ahah.
Strange to see you actualyl take time to take it apart when I'm more used to see you use, well fast violence to "open" things xD Very cute cat house! You could make a homemade 80's arcade machine, MAC edition, from the leftovers.
Garrett I’ve got the same JVC super bass tube speakers like you had in the shelf haha very cool video man glad to see you’re still making videos after all these years
my parents the blue one growing up. it couldnt play games so i got a repurposed dell pavilion. CRT screens arent to be slept on. if it werent for the weight and size they would still be relevant. just toss the case in the dishwasher to clean it
I had a similar one but grape and came with the keyboard and puck mouse, paid £20 but that was also in the dark, got it home and realised it had no logic board. Doh. Never mind, made my money back on the kb/mouse and turned the iMac into a cat bed. Win win!
Hello there my friend... i love your videos and cats hahaha ... i sent you a friend request on Facebook... nice job on the cat cave , glad you didnt destroy the imac even tho i am android and windows fan hahaha ... make more videos ...
That’s not an iMac G3. It’s actually an iMac DV Lime, with a Power PC processor running at 400 MHz with 512 MB RAM. Original OS: Mac OS 8.6 Later OS: Mac OS 9.0, 9.0.3 or 9.0.4 Maximum OS supported: Mac OS X 10.3.9 (350 MHz) or 10.4.11 Tiger (400 MHz)
I think that track was Sofa Surfers Dorfmeister remix. I used to do projection visuals to another track on that album, so I thought one was good anyway.
That's a tray-loading drive, not slot-loading, FYI! 😉
Oh man I'm not sure how I never noticed that mistake in editing haha, I don't script stuff 😅

I was just thinking, that *might* be for a 100k special? Either way, awesome speaker wall, and an amazing video! Loved the adorable cats! ❤
@@GarretClaridgeMeerkat no
Great disassembly of that old I-mac. The cat was happy in the end and that is all what counts.
Oh you're also here! Greetings from Germany!
Been watching Garrets channel for many years.@@kyoudaiken
Hi garret my name is Yeray i'm 16 years old. Since i was 5 years old, i've been watching your videos of speaker destruction. You're the best.
from smashing to preserving, thats a true classic
No, downgraded
@@Lou-yf1jonah way better
@@Unos2361 nope. Its a downgrade.
@@Lou-yf1joafter all he is still a furry💀
I remember watching you smash one of these things when I was a kid. Glad to see were back to some old school content!
Same!
Same
Same
same here
Super nice idea. So cute to see her in there!
That's adorable, I love how one of your cats truly adors it. Really well worth the time and work into disassembling and cleaning it. Great work!
I remember your old iMac videos from before when I watched them in 2015, so much nostalgia
I remember your OG iMac destruction video. Glad to see you do a video of another one.

That is a fantastic cat house!😸 And smash the iMac G3! Everyone will get so angry over a computer! 😂

Nice project! I remember seing a picture of one of those on the internet many years ago

Idk about the life about the crt tho how long it has been on but i would only destroy it if it was a long runner
Finally a computer vid from Garret Claridge!
22:30 My Idea You Could get Some Clear Plastic And Make A Fully Clear One If You Want.
Awesome. I remember the one you destroyed with scar as the wallpaper hahaha
Beer coated install disc yet the reader works fine
That thing is awesome
Strange to see you actualyl take time to take it apart when I'm more used to see you use, well fast violence to "open" things xD
Very cute cat house!

Kinda reminds me of the one that The 8-Bit Guy did, Anyway. Looking great garret. Also hope you hit 100k soon. :D
almost at 100k!. wish you the best luck hitting that milestone
Garrett I’ve got the same JVC super bass tube speakers like you had in the shelf haha very cool video man glad to see you’re still making videos after all these years
with the window band pass thing? haha
@@GarretClaridgeMeerkat yeah the silver ones haha tried to see if you had any vids on them but didn’t find it - thanks for the reply
a different take on "SkunkWare" 😉
adorable kitties
those fluffy contortionists will find a way to fit inside
"if I fits, i sits"
I'm suprised that it still runs fine
Despite the rotten beer that was inside of it
My unit was left in a humid place and still works like a champ
These old macs still work after taking a lot of abuse, like @ComputerClan 's Macintosh IIvx, horrible, yet still works.
@@AJersy When Apple knew to build computers that would last
Nowadays they love to die without doing anything to them
And your cat actually likes it, that's pretty good! If you ever put that computer on a network (not sure why) you could name it BEER.
Hope you're having a great weekend!!
I use to have a blueberry one :3 slot loading one. It was so cool sad that one was ruined
Ahh The Classy Imac G3. Great Idea Bro
Instead destroying. Why not build for cat house
So nice for the kitty 🐈
i didn't even realize garret was still posting. youtube never alerts me.
Cats fina get rad damage 🤣 🤣 🤣 better get kitty hazmat suits
my parents the blue one growing up. it couldnt play games so i got a repurposed dell pavilion. CRT screens arent to be slept on. if it werent for the weight and size they would still be relevant. just toss the case in the dishwasher to clean it
This video reminds me an old smashing iMac video
you should blow the speakers and maybe recycle the pc parts into a new pc to see how it works on other pcs
Come on now don't be greedy show us some of them good stuff in the background I see some pretty cool speakers I demand more videos pretty pleeeease 🥺
Definitely keep the shell casing for the cat bed. Scrap the guts for parts.
This reminded me on Garrets video from 2008 "Unoxing my new iMac G3 snow"... i was 10 back when i watched that...
Mad Skillz! And Cat-tastic!
FINALLY THE LEGEND IS BACK!

For the iMac, you could try to overvolt the crt and see what happens to it.
Ah yes, the Steve Jobs tabs and the Jobs-full fan-less non-fan.That'll get that beer cooking.
Cute cat
For the Mac i suggest just fixing the broken parts and getting a new case for it
U should bass test the speakers
Or put a little bluetooth amp in it with a battery and make a custom box and leave it inside the monitor
Hay garret what speakers do you have next to you TV and what model
this is such a neat idea!
For the guts, you should put it outside and leave it on and see how long it lasts.
I think he made the video at 5 minutes before 2024 2:49 and why is the 4 taller than all the others letters?😮
I wonder why Misty didn't come into the new house😅
I think it would be great to make a goofy case out of wood for the internals. Maybe add some big speakers in the case and throw music on it.
What’s the plan for all those speakers garret ?
I was planning on a blowout but kept finding more to add haha, i have more imac stuff to scrap out till but like first aluminum era
That music was Kruder & Dorfmeister: The K&D Sessions.....a truly great ablum.
Kitties!!!
cats are cute 🥰
That’s not an iMac G3. It’s actually an iMac DV Lime, with a Power PC processor running at 400 MHz with 512 MB RAM.
Original OS:
Mac OS 8.6
Later OS:
Mac OS 9.0, 9.0.3 or 9.0.4
Maximum OS supported:
Mac OS X 10.3.9 (350 MHz) or 10.4.11 Tiger (400 MHz)
This is a tray loading iMac G3
The DV version was a slot loading
My iBook G3 “Snow” is has 500 MHz G3 in it and 256mb of Ram and it as Mac OS X 10.3.9 installed on it I went from Mac OS X 10.2.8 to 10.3.9
You do bass test one of them very long time ago
Kitty got a nice crib!
teardown ❤
You're so cool, I suggest You clean the "iron" and buy a new case to make the iMac like new)
Damn those iMacs look edible
Make the inside like a modern laptop without the crt and make the crt an external display
Wow thats a big pile of crappy speakers in the background looks like we got a great vid coming soon
surprised the battery didnt leak
Cool!!
Those Mac OS X CDs are worth big cash on eBay.
This channel stuck at 2014 or 2013
thats whats amazing about it
I think that track was Sofa Surfers Dorfmeister remix. I used to do projection visuals to another track on that album, so I thought one was good anyway.
Yes! Awesome disc!
shame to far gone but still had some use
That install disk is a SCORE.
Урааа
Наконец то ты что то чинишь, вместо разрушений и вдувания динамиков
When are you going to upload the jbl blow out video?
2:45 kitty!
@GarretClaridgeMeerkat well all of the iMac G3 had Harmon kardon speakers
Really ?? Haha I should not drink and make videos I made a couple whoops in this one 😅
you gonna keep the internal of the imac ????🤔🤔
Im not sure what to do with it, its in a shed outside right now - might smash it up for a video this summer
Hey Garret do you still collect any Macs?
My man's been ripped off, I see...
I'm surprised this iMac still works
BEER?!?!?!?!?!
Equipment tour please 😢
