I gave my Biondi Blue iMac to my nephew a year ago. People forget that when it came out it didn't sell very well. Not until the candy-colored versions came out did the CRT iMac take off in sales and spawned colorful translucent do-dads such as toothbrushes, radios, irons, ad nauseum.
My first vB thread lock. Oh, the excitement of it all.
It's borderline, but I really want to lock a thread on the new boards, and technically the G3 iMac isn't Current Hardware now that it's off the Apple Store page.
(yeah, Edu still, but most of us can't get at it)
Since I'm such a swell guy, I'll provide a nice little link here so you can shoot over to the other thread. No need having 2 of them going here.

You might wanna read those sales figures again. There's a reason it saved Apple and made pre-orders shoot through the roof.

Crap. Does this mean that the cheapest Mac you can buy (without being in education) is $999?
For now.
If anything, it's good news, since the old iMac was hardly worth $799, and it was only really selling to edu institutions anyway.
