The eMac was also another good one along the same lines as the original iMac. At that point in time, the polycarbonate unibody was getting phased out and LCD displays were already getting cheaper to mass produce. It’s probably one of the last cathode ray tube Macs in existence.
I have an 2nd gen eMac sitting next to me. Just installed 10.5.8 yesterday. It was my main machine in the early 2000s.
Firewire connectivity for external hdds was magical. The screen is still nice. However the fan noise is and was always terrible. With some mods it became bearable.
Yup, I had an eMac I got my hands on. It was a truly great machine and that was probably one of the best CRTs ever made. It was Apple’s last CRT product as well.
