Quick update on the iMac G4

2023-06-21 - Huntington


I played with it a lot. And ordered upgrades for it (1Gb ram,
500Gb SSD, new pram battery) and spent Father’s Day doing the
upgrades. It’s so much faster now!

Currently running a 64Gb partition w 10.4.11/9.2.2 as before.
I build software to proxy iMessages to Adium, but that all runs
elsewhere so wasn’t disrupted by the wipe.


All the old experimentation is gone, starting from scratch
and only installing the good stuff. Browser is locked in as
OmniWeb. Xcode, tigerbrew, git/curl/zsh installed. Offices 98
and 2008 installed.

It’s fun.


Spent too much time trying to explore/figure out tilde.club on
it this evening.
