[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1756364, member: 56379"] From my experience back in the day when G3 & G4 based Apple computers were current technology...watching You Tube video's on these computers 10-12 years ago wasn't that great. You had to watch them in small resolution windows...and the videos were choppy. Now 10-12 years later...YouTube video's are more complicated (more data)...and there's all the YouTube advertising to deal with. - You need newer web browsers (that a G3 iMac can't run). - You need newer versions of flash or Java or HTNL 5 (that a G3 iMac can't run) - You need newer Mac OS versions to run those newer versions of Flash, Java, HTML5. Bottom line is. A G3 iMac didn't really run YouTube videos well 10-12 years ago. Running YouTube videos in 2017 is more complex...and even if a G3 iMac could run them...they would run very very poorly. - Nick [/QUOTE]
