iMac PowerPC 7445 (G4) 2002

The Apple iMac G4/800 (Flat Panel) is powered by an 800 MHz PowerPC 7445 (G4) processor with the AltiVec "Velocity Engine" vector processing unit and a 256k on-chip level 2 cache. It is configured with 256 MB of RAM (PC133 SDRAM), a 60.0 GB Ultra ATA/66 hard drive (5400 RPM), a tray-loading "SuperDrive", and NVIDIA GeForce2 MX graphics with 32 MB of DDR SDRAM (AGP 2X support).

The internal components are housed in a stylish 10.6-inch half-sphere, ice-white case, with a chromed stainless steel neck supporting a 15" TFT Active Matrix LCD display. This model was shipped with both MacOS X 10.1 and MacOS 9.2 installed, with MacOS X selected as the default, and included an ice-white Apple Pro Keyboard, Mouse, and Speakers. Unlike some earlier iMac models that relied on convection cooling, the iMac "Flat Panel" series is cooled by a quiet internal fan.

As a higher-end model in the iMac G4 series, this machine delivered enhanced performance and functionality with its 800 MHz G4 processor and SuperDrive. The steady performance increase from the 700 MHz model provided a smoother MacOS X experience. The inclusion of a SuperDrive, enabling DVD creation, was a major draw for users with creative aspirations. Combining an innovative design with practical performance improvements, this model further enhanced the appeal of the iMac G4 series.
