Old iMac Wanted

    Hi Guys,
    I’ve always had a hankering for one of the old Mac G4s. The white one with the ball base and adjustable screen. I have an old eMac at home and I love it but the screen is small and it weighs a ton. Has anybody any idea where I could buy a pre-used one in good nick? I’ll be trying on eBay later but just wondered if their might be somewhere closer to home (Dublin) that anyone knows of that might deal in older stuff. I know they’re old technology but I used to use them when I worked in graphic design and loved them and I think (in terms of design) they were always the best looking macs. I only really use the eMac for photoshop work. Anyway, thanks in anticipation. Any and all comments/guidance welcome.

    Have you checked out adverts? (http://www.adverts.ie/) Should be a few on there (Maybe even from Dublin)

    The only iMacs that can have video input are the new models announced today, it is a new feature. No previous iMac has a video-in capability. Your only solution is ScreenRecycler to pipe video through the network port.
