I found a Bondi Blue iMac G3 lying in the street!

In today's Mac-tastic episode of Veronica Explains, I try and get this trashed roadside iMac G3 from 1998 working again. I'll go through all of the steps I took, and we'll see if we can get this classic 90s computer working again.

Huge shout-out to Bryce (‪@MidnightNotion‬) for helping me find this beast!

Also, credit is owed to ‪@ActionRetro‬ and ‪@MacintoshLibrarian‬ for having awesome 90s-friendly websites.

And special thanks to Javier Rivera ‪@ARCJavMaster‬, designer of the #MARCHintosh logo!
