The iMac iMac SNOW. 
This week I also offer the accompanying iMac Graphite. So you can collect this beautiful iMac G3 couple.

>> FORWORD
Please don't make any assumptions, but READ the accompanying text – and look at the photos "very carefully" to avoid disappointments.

The Apple iMac G3/600 DV Special Edition was offered in the special colors "Graphite" and "Snow". In this week auction … I am offering the "Snow" – in one of the next auctions … I will offer the "Graphite" > Both in PRESTINE condition! As a true Macintosh Apple enthusiast you can supplement your collection with this beautiful "iMac G3 couple".

Steve Jobs presented the DV SE series* on the "Apple Special Event 1999".

FYI
– DV stands for "Digital Video" (including RGB video out);
– SE stands for "Special Edition".

The Apple iMac G3/500 SUMMER 2000 Edition was sold "21 years ago"! So you are bidding on a TIME machine. Bytheway. This is one of the last (and fastest!) iMac G3 model Apple ever sold!

This bundle includes the original "Apple Pro Keyboard" & "Apple Pro Mouse"!

The first iMac model is widely known as "a milestone". It marks "Steve Jobs" return to Apple and the rescue of "Apple" as a company. "Jonathan Ive" (currently Vice President of Industrial Design at Apple), is credited with the design. 

The original iMac G3 was introduced in 1998 and started the “i” revolution. With the iMac, Apple returned to Jobs’ vision of an "all-in-one" computer, with all of the guts in the same case as the display. In a world of messy PCs, the iMac stood out as a simple, elegant computing solution. While most of the computers at the time were beige boxes — the iMac G3 was packed into a "curvy (egg-shaped)", "translucent colorful", "retro futuristic" all-in-one case design, with a 15-inch "crystal clear" CRT display. FYI: the Codename of this iMac is "Life Savers".

// WHY BID - BUY?
On a technical level, this entire computer is "disassembled, cleaned, checked and assembled again". The computer has been cleaned inside & outside (dust-free). The keyboard and mouse have also been completely disassembled and professionally cleaned. See the dozen of pictures.

This 100 % working, professionally checked “Vintage” bundle includes "tons of pre-installed software*" – like the expensive "Adobe Design Collection" and the "Microsoft Office 2001" suite – ready to use and give you a glimp of the past! Including software:

ADOBE DESIGN COLLECTION contains:
– Adobe Photoshop 7;
– Adobe Illustrator 10;
– Adobe Pagemaker 7;
– Adobe InDesign 2.0 (= the QuarkXPress killer).

MICROSOFT OFFICE SUITE contains:
– Word;
– Powerpoint;
– Excel.

Note: 
– Both the applications and the operating system are installed in ENGLISH;

>> Disclaimer:
The computer only includes software* that is classified as "abandonware" (= from the Public Domain, distributed over the internet and available freely, easily and readily). The software is supplied "free of charge" as a free service (for the retro-computing fan).

This auction is an excellent opportunity for both the "Apple Fan" and the "Graphic Designer / student". In addition to being a "today" still perfectly usable "Desktop Publishing (DTP)" Computer, this "iMac" is also a true collector's item, which can be used as a design object. It gives you the best of both worlds! 

The screen is COLOR-CALIBRATED * – Adobe RGB 1998 – by myself (I am a professional "Graphic Designer/ Teacher" for 30 years now). Color-Calibration* is a must for every Graphic Designer / Typographer / DTP'er – and for students at "Graphic courses". Last-but-not-least: the firmware is updated to run CLASSIC OS 9.2.2 (needed for the Adobe software).

// IMPORTANT – WHY BUY FROM ME? 
(instead of other sellers)

I am a Mac user from way back in the Legacy Era. I offer Vintage Apple computers as I would buy them myself. My admiration for Steve Jobs' legacy is so great that I want the Macs I sell, to stand "the test of time". Furthermore I only sell items I have "passion" for. 

– Hardware-wise, all my sold computers are completely disassembled, cleaned – and, if necessary, repaired – in order to extend their lifespan. See pictures.

// ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST & BATTERY ACID & SAVE SHIPMENT

– DUST: the inside of a 20-year-old computer looks the same as "the collection-container of a vacuum cleaner" (read: a dust bunny). And as you know "dust" can ruin your electronics;

– LEAKS: 20-year-old batteries will someday leak, causing irreversible damage to the computer. So, if "time and date" are not displayed correctly, you sadly will know what time it is;

>> A NEW pram battery is placed (to maintain certain important system settings including the system clock & currently date).

Long-Story Short. Computers from other vendors may look the same on the outside. I can guarantee you that the inside is very different! So if you want to enjoy your investment for as long as possible, choosing "wisely" is advisable. 

– SAFE PACKAGING & SHIPMENT: did you know that shipping a (CRT) iMac G3 is nearly impossible? After 20 years the plastics becomes brittle and due to the heavy CRT screen it can break easily during transport. Especially when courier companies drop packages (e.g. they fall off the conveyor belt during sorting). FYI: for the insurance companies, a box must be able to survive a fall from 1.5 meters. But don't worry. As an "experience seller" who ships retro CRT devices every week – to all parts of the world without a hitch– I put a lot of effort into "safe packaging". I pack all my retro-computers solidly in professional carton, styrofoam and lots of bubble wrap and other protection material. If you are not convinced, than I advise you to read all my positive reviews! 

// GERM-FREE PRO KEYBOARD & MOUSE
The "iMac" comes with the accompanying RARE Apple "Pro" keyboard and mouse. Those objects alone are already worth a fortune on auction websites. The keyboard is completely disassembled and cleaned professionally (see pictures). It looks brand-new! In my opinion it is my responsibility (as a seller) to provide a Germ-Free keyboard (a 2018 study found that 96% of the keyboards were contaminated with bacteria). So, I think we can agree that nobody wants a nasty, infected keyboard. 

PS/ the QWERTY keyboard is a "European" or "VS" version (subject to availability at the time of payment). 

// A BRIEF HISTORY LESSON
Designed by "Jonathan Ive" – also responsible for the "iPod" and the "Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh" – this computer became a true icon. When Jobs revealed the iMac at the "MacWorld Expo" in San Francisco, the excitement in the audience was a palpable thing: “whoa”! 

This colorful, distinctive and revolutionary design – revolutionized the history of the computer (it became the crown of the tech industry). The leading "MOMA museum New York" has the legendary iMac G3 in its collection for a reason. 

FYI: it was "Jonathan Ive" who introduced the WHITE color Macs. You will see this iMac in lots of leading architects magazines and books – and of course also in architectural offices.

If you're making an investment … this is a good one!

// MAC OS 9: SOME LOVE FOR THE CLASSICS !
Long before the current "macOS Big Sur" or even before any of the OS X systems, there was Mac OS 9. While not as aesthetically pleasing compared to current day operating systems, Mac OS 9 was sleek, super responsive and a joy to use. In fact. It still is!

This iMac comes with a clean install of "System 9.2.2". Mac OS 9 is the last major release of Apple's classic OS operating system – and promoted as "The Best Operating System Ever"!

// IMPORTANT NOTES
– this iMac works as it should (extensively tested!). Only the CD doesn't function anymore. 

– speakers and USB connections also work perfectly;

– the Harmon-Kardon system sounds heavenly;

– the CRT screen is still crystal clear and razor sharp (no dead pixels);

– the entire "interior" of the transparent plastic has been professionally cleaned so that it is dust-free and looks brand-new!;

FYI
There are "normal signs of use" (which are to be expected with a device of this age). But as an experienced connoisseur I can guarantee that these items are very good condition! View the numerous images to make your own judgment!

// PORTS
– 2 times Firewire (essential if you want to work with modern equipment);
– 2 times USB;
– Ethernet;
– Infrared port (for IR digital cameras and computers).
– Audio Line IN;
– Audio Line OUT.

// INCLUDING
– iMac all-in-one computer;
– tons of pre-installed software;
– original RARE Apple Pro Keyboard (model M7803)*, the case is made from clear transparent plastic, with translucent black keys; 
– original RARE Apple Pro Mouse (model M5769)*;
– power cable.
– digital files on the hard drive, of the legendary “Apple Think Different” campaign of time-honored visionaries like John Lennon & Yoko, Muhammad Ali, Einstein, Picasso, etc. See pictures.

FYI:
The RARE Apple "translucent keyboard" and "Pro Mouse", they alone are worth the bid! Did you know? The same keyboard and mouse were used for the Apple Cube.

// DID YOU KNOW? 
The "i" in "iMac" stands for "internet", "individual", "instruct", "inform" and "inspire".

>> To Sum Up:
This is an excellent opportunity for both the "Apple/ Macintosh Collector" and the "Graphic Designer / Student". In addition to being a "today" still perfectly usable "Desktop Publishing (DTP)" Computer, this "iMac" is also a true collector's item, which can be used as a design object. It gives you the best of both worlds! 

// PACKAGING & SHIPPING
The IMAC G3 bundle is packaged securely and carefully for safe shipment.
Moreover, this bundle is shipped INSURED because of its precious value.
Because of the precious content extra attention is paid to the CUSTOM packaging. This extra cost is included in the shipping price.

"One More Thing" 
– Steve Jobs quote

Don't miss this unique opportunity. 
Great opportunities don't come everyday!

Let the bidding begin … for this iMac SNOW G3 500MHz DV Special Edition. Goodbye, boring computers!

"One More Thing" 
When in doubt, check my positive customer reviews ;)
(… because there are some "copycats" out there who copy my style/text and pretend to be me). There is only one "VISENTO"! That's me ;)

"One More Thing" 
The most dramatically new macintosh since the original.
Will you have one?

"The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow"
