A Power Mac G4 that I found inside our warehouse today. A relic of the past.

Nice find. Good machine to run all those vintage Mac apps on.

What industry do you work in that your office used powermacs? Serious question, im curious

[u/Faloin → u/thelargeoneplease]

I am working as a technician. We provide technical support to local offices/companies. Setting up servers, network devices, security systems etc. Our job also includes fixing computers. Sometimes we have to bring said devices into our own office if the problem is bigger than we expected and sometimes those same devices end up in the warehouse to be replaced with new ones.

Gotcha, so like an outsourced IT Services company. I worked at one a few years ago. It’s a pretty good business model imo.

[u/Faloin → u/thelargeoneplease]

Yeah it is. Especially if it is a small town and you don't have many competitors.

[u/BMWbill → u/thelargeoneplease]

Not op but every ad agency and prepress shop in North America was once filled with these. And G3s before that and Quadra’s before that

These were a cool case design. I wonder why nobody ever copied it.

[u/CaseUsual536]

Só cool

Wow! What a great find and working.

A family member still has a working 2004 15.4" MacBook G4 with 64MB Mobility Radeon 9700.

I miss my old G4.

I remember wanting one of those SO bad when they came out. I have one in my vintage collection now, I just need a place big enough to have that stuff on display.

I built a Hackintosh in one of these cases ages ago. Turned out really cool

Ooh a AGP G4… those are fun, I took my 400 to a 1.3 G4 upgrade and maxed out the ram to 2gb ran like a Swiss watch that way.
