Extremely Rare Apple iMac G3 Prototype - A Unique Piece of Tech History! I'm offering an incredibly rare Apple iMac G3 Prototype, a must-have for serious collectors and Apple enthusiasts. This isn't just another vintage computer—it's a genuine prototype, likely a casting model, that was never meant for public release. Its design and features make it a one-of-a-kind piece of Apple’s developmental history. Key Features: Prototype Design: Unlike any production model, this iMac G3 has a CRT made entirely of plastic, which is highly unusual and a clear indicator that this was not meant for consumer use. Incomplete Logic Board: Another sign of its prototype status is the incomplete logic board, suggesting this unit was likely used for testing or design purposes rather than full functionality. Pre-2000 Manufacture: Based on my research and the information provided by the previous owner, this prototype was likely made before the year 2000, possibly during the early stages of the iMac G3 development. I purchased this rare prototype from someone who worked directly for Apple Inc. adding a layer of authenticity and historical value to this machine. Unfortunately, there's limited information available about this particular model, which only adds to its mystery and rarity. Why This Prototype is Special: Apple prototypes rarely make it out of the company, especially in such good condition. This iMac G3 prototype represents a unique era in Apple’s history when they were pushing the boundaries of design and technology. Owning this piece not only gives you a rare collectible but also a tangible connection to the innovative spirit of Apple during the late '90s. Perfect for: Collectors: A must-have for any serious Apple or tech history collector. Museums: An excellent addition to any tech or design museum looking to showcase Apple’s innovation. Apple Enthusiasts: A unique opportunity to own a piece of the company’s legacy. > About me: I have been collecting Apple products for years.
