[QUOTE="UnaClocker, post: 291830, member: 16985"] Nice machine, my favorite color, I used to have one of those when it was brand new. Had to sell it shortly after I got it. Still miss the thing. Anyways, that's plenty of ram, should run great. The hard drive, yes, you can use any standard old IDE drive up to 120gigs. I have a 60gig in my current iMac. As for the CD drive, you need to find a slot load laptop style drive. I'd recommend just getting an external enclosure to put your PC drive in. Just make sure you get one with Firewire as the iMac only has USB 1.1, so it'll be really slow if you use USB. Also, you list the resolution as 800x600.. It'll do 1024x768 very very well. Makes the web far more usable. :) [/QUOTE]
