The memories! :D My old elementary school had these beautiful machines EVERYWHERE; even the staff lounge had one. My favorite one continues to be the tangerine one.
ME TOO!! I always loved it when the teacher let us all play games or surf around, the class would go quite and you could hear the servers and pcs in the room just rumbling.
@@ChickenJoe-tq6xdoh I’ve seen one alright… especially an RCA Lyra (in fact, I kind of stole it from my grandparents who happened to have stolen it from my mom)
Yess, my 1st grade class in 2011 had these. I wish technology didn’t get so boring overtime. Companies need to start getting more unique, I hate how dystopian and cheap everything looks now.
I’m searching for the late 1999 imac g3 dv tangerine 🍊 i found one for 170€ (cheapest i found most of them are around 300€ or in non working condition) and this one is 3h drive away from me
Last week, I replaced my iMac G3's Compact Flash hard-drive with an 120 GB OWC SATA SSD. I'm glad I did, as I wanted to dual-boot Mac OS 9 and OS X, and someone on Twitter warned me about the impact of virtual memory in OS X on CF cards. The iMac still runs great with this new SSD, but with dual operating systems and a more long-lasting Flash hard-drive. :)
@@trabant601e may be the bearings are worn but my g3 also sounds exactly like this and it has for the 10 years I’ve owned it. Works perfectly fine it’s just reallly loud.
It’s the Maxtor drives Apple used around 2001. They were extremely noisy even new. I bought a brand new iMac DV SE in 2001 for music production. I was shocked at how loud it was. I had to replace the drive to record with microphones in the same room.
I've got a green one but the inner bezel is shattered (a lot of iMac g3's have this issue), however, Mac effects is releasing inner bezel reproductions in June, so I can make it good as new then
I had one in early 2000s Very cool - Red one Free DVD a bugs life Got a camera for it too Had for 3 yrs til hard drive went out. Sold it at a computer parts store in Aurora for $100 Was a fun one.
about 1 more potbellied monitor. not. Well, you're a good computer, but you just have to work with it carefully, otherwise you'll find such retro computers. where, and if you find them, are they worth a lot?
That's the hard drive, not the fan. These slot load iMacs had no fans. You should hear the 7Gb hard drives that were in the low end Indigo iMacs - they were loud!
The sound : eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew
Hearing that startup sound again, I really felt it
I still have it to this day. Mac OS high sierra.
@@toddlermindcraftsHow do you have a iMac g3 with high Sierra?
@@sarahbancheroI’m not sure but it could be modified (somehow)
@@ChineseJohnCena yeah, people have figured out to get newer computer logic boards to fit into these old ones.
I have iMac G3 in benedictine ❤❤
These computers always remind me of Zoolander. "The files are IN the computer.." 😂
😂
@@ashtonsretrocomputerroom The computer is noisy, which is not good
@@goldbabybeltvit's from 1999, and that's the CD drive running
@@sarahbanchero Oh ok but you should have seen the bottom of the comment section
They remind me of the Jetsons.
The sound wall e makes when done charging
I heard that sound from the movie a couple of times
@@clarachu31324I also heard it from the cars movie
These were the most gorgeous machines i had ever seen back in my very early teens. I wanted one so badly
We had these in schoool😊😊
Eu ainda queria um 🤣😁
I broke mine back than because it kept turning on in the night
I miss those sounds from the computer rooms at my old schools.
Same here!!
Same I had the same computers
They pretty much just used this sound after but yeah it was nostalgic

Listen, young people. These were the COOLEST things ever. And if you got to use one of the four in the elementary school computer lab, you were a GOD.
Fr!! But let's cut the god part hehe
I did
I was born in 2002 and grew up with these exact computers in my classroom. How young are you talking? Kids born after 2007 probably never seen one

Sure ❤🎉

That’s actually quieter than my computer is
Same thing
This looks to be a 1999-2000 iMac G3 DV blueberry, for people who are wondering.
It is!!!
It looks like a Bondai Blue

I installed a 128 GB Compact Flash card for a hard-drive in my 1999 graphite iMac G3. With this SSD, my iMac boots and runs completely silent. :D

I forgot how *noisy* those old HDD's were.
It seems to just be apple ones, I've seen alot of old hdds that still run/sound great
This one probably just has bad bearings, they aren't supposed to be this loud
@@trabant601e *loud

While I'm completely familiar with all the noises here. I don't recall the hard drive being this loud. Might be time to replace it.
Time to put an SSD in it.
Ashton’s Retro Computer Room, cool content my guy
How long has that been sitting there?
Nostalgia that I never experimented with
Ahhh, the macintosh sound 🖥️🎙️💻 🗿
Play fortnite
In it's time......
It was the best and coolest thing you could have 💯
I remember these all over my middle school computer lab. Loved using them.
That's a dookie computer we have here
Why start noise is same as Karen noise from SpongeBob?
i literally searched "windows"
I wanted this as a child
*press button*
HHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEI

I feel like it will explode at startup

I love Apple but i never buy a product
I think ur hard drive is about to fail
No.
I have that before in 1999 but when I turn it on it glitches very hard 😢😢😢😢😢
i have an original 5 fruits grape, i need to get it running
my grandma had 2 iMacs and a apple 2 computer but they we're thrown away sometime in 2020
this brought back feelings I didn’t know I had.
Very loud.. Not good for this iMac.
Eis que você linga seu computador capenga:
Maybe you need to change the storage into SSD let's see how it rocket the old machine 😂😂
Imagine turning this on in the middle of the night
FR💀💀💀
Bro that “EEEEEEEEEEEE” noise sounded like my ps4 starting up
The fan speed : *12000 rpm* 💀
Actually I think it's the hard drive making that noise as the bearings can get worn out and make it really loud like this one!
Damn! Brings back memories
That’s rare since most speakers on that are broken
I've got a green one but the inner bezel is shattered (a lot of iMac g3's have this issue), however, Mac effects is releasing inner bezel reproductions in June, so I can make it good as new then
I had one in early 2000s
Very cool - Red one
Free DVD a bugs life
Got a camera for it too
Had for 3 yrs til hard drive went out. Sold it at a computer parts store in Aurora for $100
Was a fun one.

Zoolander : WHAT …this…this….IMPOSSIBLE!!!!

Wrong keyboard btw
Just the SOUND of the iMac turning on sure makes me nostalgic.
The computer of my childhood. 😁
I actually installed OS X El Capitán on this. Dont ask how
WYUAT THE FACK
HOW-
I used to edit video for public access cable on one of these.
Èeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedaaaauuèeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
it amazes me on how technology has come so far from retro to AI NOW 🤯 BLOWS MY MIND
I might be born in 2011 but I love old tech like video games from the 80s and 90s and up I really want an old Mac computer like a macintosh 2

This takes me back to 2002-03. Elementary school days
I remember seeing these in 2020 at my school
2011 Macbook Air use the same startup sound as iMac G3
The imac G3 is too loud when he starts
Noice
the old future
I'd expect to hear a head drive like that in a Pentium 3 or Pentium 4 tower running Windows XP

that sounds like an airbus a340 takeoff
I'm really a fan of these old machines, they are truly pieces of history, I wish one day I had one
One day your computer will also become retro, just wait another 20-30 years.
+5000 FPS😂😂
Looks like apple logo
All new completely design MacBook Pro they M4 they 2021 startup sound system
