The memories! :D My old elementary school had these beautiful machines EVERYWHERE; even the staff lounge had one. My favorite one continues to be the tangerine one.
ME TOO!! I always loved it when the teacher let us all play games or surf around, the class would go quite and you could hear the servers and pcs in the room just rumbling.
@@trabant601e may be the bearings are worn but my g3 also sounds exactly like this and it has for the 10 years I’ve owned it. Works perfectly fine it’s just reallly loud.
It’s the Maxtor drives Apple used around 2001. They were extremely noisy even new. I bought a brand new iMac DV SE in 2001 for music production. I was shocked at how loud it was. I had to replace the drive to record with microphones in the same room.
@@ChickenJoe-tq6xdoh I’ve seen one alright… especially an RCA Lyra (in fact, I kind of stole it from my grandparents who happened to have stolen it from my mom)
Yess, my 1st grade class in 2011 had these. I wish technology didn’t get so boring overtime. Companies need to start getting more unique, I hate how dystopian and cheap everything looks now.
I’m searching for the late 1999 imac g3 dv tangerine 🍊 i found one for 170€ (cheapest i found most of them are around 300€ or in non working condition) and this one is 3h drive away from me
Last week, I replaced my iMac G3's Compact Flash hard-drive with an 120 GB OWC SATA SSD. I'm glad I did, as I wanted to dual-boot Mac OS 9 and OS X, and someone on Twitter warned me about the impact of virtual memory in OS X on CF cards. The iMac still runs great with this new SSD, but with dual operating systems and a more long-lasting Flash hard-drive. :)
I had one in early 2000s Very cool - Red one Free DVD a bugs life Got a camera for it too Had for 3 yrs til hard drive went out. Sold it at a computer parts store in Aurora for $100 Was a fun one.
We just booted up our old green apple iMac from the 90s. Haven't switched on in years and it launched without issue. IOS 9.2 ... good times, good times.
Please keep making videos about the sounds of old mac machines, it warms my heart to think of Steve Jobs rolling in his grave each time someone listens to it.
That's the hard drive, not the fan. These slot load iMacs had no fans. You should hear the 7Gb hard drives that were in the low end Indigo iMacs - they were loud!
Hearing that startup sound again, I really felt it
I still have it to this day. Mac OS high sierra.
@@toddlermindcraftsHow do you have a iMac g3 with high Sierra?
@@sarahbancheroI’m not sure but it could be modified
@@ChineseJohnCena yeah, people have figured out to get newer computer logic boards to fit into these old ones.
I have iMac G3 in benedictine ❤❤
The sound wall e makes when done charging
I heard that sound from the movie a couple of times
@@lisasimpsonfan13I also heard it from the cars movie
That sound more like PS 2 or 1 start-up
WALL-E MOMENT 🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🔥
@@Reyn18927 they were actually the same to sound file
I love that boot up sound and I wish my computer boot up sounded like that
Change it

These computers always remind me of Zoolander. "The files are IN the computer.." 😂
😂
@@ashtonsretrocomputerroom The computer is noisy, which is not good
@@goldbabybeltvit's from 1999, and that's the CD drive running
@@sarahbanchero Oh ok but you should have seen the bottom of the comment section
They remind me of the Jetsons.
These were the most gorgeous machines i had ever seen back in my very early teens. I wanted one so badly
We had these in schoool😊😊
Eu ainda queria um 🤣😁
I broke mine back than because it kept turning on in the night
@@Justinbill8205 Why didn't you unplug it from the cable? We used to do that when the TV was on at night.
Old Is Gold
Yes
Except when your hdd sounds like a jet engine!
Sure ❤🎉
🤓
And new is shit
I miss those sounds from the computer rooms at my old schools.
Same here!!
Same I had the same computers
They pretty much just used this sound after but yeah it was nostalgic

I wanted this as a child
I forgot how *noisy* those old HDD's were.
It seems to just be apple ones, I've seen alot of old hdds that still run/sound great
This one probably just has bad bearings, they aren't supposed to be this loud
@@trabant601e *loud

Damn! Brings back memories
Listen, young people. These were the COOLEST things ever. And if you got to use one of the four in the elementary school computer lab, you were a GOD.
Fr!! But let's cut the god part hehe
I did
I was born in 2002 and grew up with these exact computers in my classroom. How young are you talking? Kids born after 2007 probably never seen one

Nostalgia that I never experimented with
This looks to be a 1999-2000 iMac G3 DV blueberry, for people who are wondering.
It is!!!
It looks like a Bondai Blue

Yes Bondi Blue
I remember these all over my middle school computer lab. Loved using them.

Ashton’s Retro Computer Room, cool content my guy
Just the SOUND of the iMac turning on sure makes me nostalgic.
The computer of my childhood. 😁
In it's time......
It was the best and coolest thing you could have 💯
I love the startup sound :)
It's the startup sound for me 🤌🤌🤌

Ahhh, the macintosh sound 🖥️🎙️💻 🗿
That’s actually quieter than my computer is
Same thing
@@reiobleumas SAME
He just bring back the old memories
I might be born in 2011 but I love old tech like video games from the 80s and 90s and up I really want an old Mac computer like a macintosh 2
and the 2000s? I miss 2007 °v°
I love imac g3
I got chills hearing this.
*"WELCOME TO THE IMAC AIRLINE, ENJOY YOUR FLIGHT WITH US"*
This thing looked SO cool.
I'm really a fan of these old machines, they are truly pieces of history, I wish one day I had one
One day your computer will also become retro, just wait another 20-30 years.
Sounds of nostalgia 😢
Bro that brings back so many memories :-(
this brought back feelings I didn’t know I had.
The best asmr all day
YEEEESSSS THIS IS MY FAVORITE COMPUTER OF ALL TIME
The start up sound of a Macintosh is a siren song to me….🥰
I installed a 128 GB Compact Flash card for a hard-drive in my 1999 graphite iMac G3. With this SSD, my iMac boots and runs completely silent. :D

This computer IS so beautyful
This brings me back to elementary school
I had one in early 2000s
Very cool - Red one
Free DVD a bugs life
Got a camera for it too
Had for 3 yrs til hard drive went out. Sold it at a computer parts store in Aurora for $100
Was a fun one.
the startup is so good
Bro that keyboard🤤
I cant escape this video

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 excelente iMac y es la primera de la línea iMac la evolución de Macintosh fue espectacular
that screensaver brings back memories
MY CHILDHOOD 😭
GOD i work on old computers from this era and love the sounds these hard drives make
Those old crunch sounds! I miss it
Fire looking keyboard
I do miss these. This was iMac for me. Or the sunflower one. Both were great 😃
My grandma loved these shorts ❤
We just booted up our old green apple iMac from the 90s. Haven't switched on in years and it launched without issue. IOS 9.2 ... good times, good times.
I remember these, I was in the first grade and I thought they were the coolest things ever
This is how i think when i startup a monitor but the imac design is very cool!
Bro looks like a TV but I love the shape ❤️
Frutiger aero style 😍
I love how old computers just yell at you when turning on,and while they're on
A beautiful machine from an era I truly miss…
i remember that vibe when i use it for productivity back in 2006
Wow i love this computer😊❤
Remember seeing it as teenager in magazine. Wanted one SO BAD
startup heaven
This was the first Mac I ever used. The nostalgia is crazy
Please keep making videos about the sounds of old mac machines, it warms my heart to think of Steve Jobs rolling in his grave each time someone listens to it.
🗣️-At my school Imac
Also an imac at his school:
Imagine that sound today. For example on iPhones.
Bro that “EEEEEEEEEEEE” noise sounded like my ps4 starting up
We used those back in high school. I feel sooooo old
Loud as hell🔥🔥🔥
The only iMac that i can buy with my budget
I really like your videos
I remember seeing these in 2020 at my school
Beautiful machine! I'll keep it as a collector item..
This takes me back to 2002-03. Elementary school days
Always remember these from school.
beautiful😍
iMac G3 is my favorite old PC
But the sound after pressing the button 🥶🥶🥶
@@Capybara_tech Gotta love that automatic monitor degaussing sound on startup 👌
The fan speed : *12000 rpm* 💀
Actually I think it's the hard drive making that noise as the bearings can get worn out and make it really loud like this one!
Damm old computers way better than new computers
That classic 2000s Mac sound.
The startup:😢
The overheat:❤❤
it amazes me on how technology has come so far from retro to AI NOW 🤯 BLOWS MY MIND
I remember these in Elementary School growing up holy hell I'm surprised to see someone even have one of these in this day and age.
I remember these computers in kindergarten. Used to scare me when i heard the chime!
The fan: *REEEEEEEEEEEEEE*
That's the hard drive, not the fan. These slot load iMacs had no fans. You should hear the 7Gb hard drives that were in the low end Indigo iMacs - they were loud!
@@aa-auhow do you know this
The startup sound makes me so happy. I don't know why.
I have two of them!! Some of the most beautiful machines ever built. So stylish!
I remember this mac as a kid my elementary school had these
While I'm completely familiar with all the noises here. I don't recall the hard drive being this loud. Might be time to replace it.
Time to put an SSD in it.
i literally searched "windows"
This's your latest PC 💀
I still have this ❤❤
