[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1149419, member: 56379"] I don't know about the "special order color". Maybe the previous owner meant that of the 5 "fruit colors" available...they got the color that they knew the daughter would like. There were so many different G3 iMac models (and colors) that it gets confusing. Also...just like old cars...the colors (or shells) of these old G3 iMacs...could have been swapped around. Thus some creative person could have taken the "colored shell" from one G3 iMac...and installed it on another G3 iMac that never came in that color originally. I have one of the original Clamshell iBooks (that came in colors just like the iMacs)...and it's housing/shell is a combination of three different colors from three different Clamshell iBooks. So anything can be done with these things if someone puts their mind to it.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
