Chromium Legacy supports Lion. Jazzny and Wicknix's Nightly 55 (now rebranded as the new and improved Interweb) supports Snow Leopard. Tensixtube still works on Snow Leopard and above. Wicknix also created a lightweight SLAX Linux Virtual Box machine for those times in Snow Leopard when you just really need Chrome or modern Firefox.
Nice video. I was thinking about trying to use it as a monitor because I love the white design. There is a post in apple discussions with the title "How to use iMac late 2006 20 inch as Monitor?" (I can't put the link here) where it says it can be done with command + F2 (and a mini DVI to HDMI cable) but I have not found more information. Have you ever tried it? In general it is said that it cannot be done because it was not available for these older models but that person did manage to do it.
Maybe over heating due to dry paste on the cpu
Good point, I'll have to replace it and see the difference!
@@Mercovay This is very much the issue, these style of macs had terrible issues with heat and having the paste dry out. Also how did you get a bootable version of OS Lion. I have issues trying to get a old imac restored like this and the only images Apple makes available on their page are unbootable ones?
@@stevenchristenson2428 Did you burn to DVD? These old macs really don't like booting off USB's I find...
They always put the sticker on the screeeeeeen whyyy
