I've been looking for a cheap older iMac - just to
designate it the OS 9 machine, for older kids'
games. Found one locally here - unfortunately I
don't have all the specs, (I haven't seen it yet)
but it is an 'original tray-loading iMac', so I'm
sure that narrows it down a lot. There is an issue
with the CD drive - the tray no longer works.
Seller thinks the whole drive needs replacing. I
have an external CD drive (sony spressa) - would
that work for any software installs I need to do?
(Can I boot from a system disk on external drive
if necessary?) Is it fairly easy to replace the CD
drive (and reasonably cheap!)?
Thanks,
Kathy K
So many Macs, so little time.
