His family also got the first iMac running OS X, and that was such a beauty to behold. I mean, maybe the design wasn’t as colorful or iconic as the G4 generation, but man that OS was sweet.
You could upgrade to OS X on the colorful ones, I installed 10.0 on release day and got an OS X tee shirt and wore it to school because what was I thinking. It was fun times.

I like iMac’s colorful design. It really stood out from the beige-grey PC’s back then. My dream would be to build a sleeper PC inside the iMac.
