Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger runs nicely on it

The 800 MHz ATI Graphics eMac is more difficult than it should be to move around.

Specs

TODO: Dump from Apple System Profiler

Quirks

  • Don't install Mac OS 9.2.2 using the 2013 universal CD. Sleep won't work due to a lack of drivers, and the display will be quite shrunken. Instead, use the "drag and drop" System Folder.
  • The bottom right corner of the front bezel is popped out and refuses to pop back in, even when a 120-pound person sits on the computer. The only negative effect of this is loud noises from the speakers make the display vibrate.

History

  • The computer arrives at my parents' place from eBay.
  • I insert a 512 MiB stick of RAM (256 -> 768).
  • I discover the 256 MiB stick of RAM is bad and remove it (768 -> 512).
  • The computer is transported to my apartment.
  • TODO: Can't remember; did I eventually get this up to the max of 1 GiB?
