I am thrilled to see that many people remain interested in this computer and this mod and I hope this post will help make the information contained in this blog easier to follow. To help with this, I am writing this post to point those looking to do this in the right direction. As a result, this blog can be quite difficult to navigate for those trying to perform this mod. Several posts are even dead ends that were not viable at all. Some are even potentially dangerous and I've kept those posts up only for historical purposes. But, many of these are clearly inferior and more difficult then others. I tried several different approaches (probably around 20) and had some success with 9 different methods, these are detailed in my Summary of iMac Modspost. As I progressed, I wrote this blog as an experience journal. The PowerPC processor went from being slow to obsolete to essentially unusable, which relegated the most elegant desktop computer I've ever used to little more then a showpiece. I started this blog to share some projects, the most important of which became the conversion of the iMac G4 to something that could be used with a modern day processor.
