If you want a nerve wrecking experience try swapping plastics. I had a
dead Orange iMac with great plastics and a working Blue iMac with

Greetings all,
I have a Ruby iMac (G3, 400MHz, 36GB HD, CD drive, 256MB RAM,
OS9.2.1, Firmware 4.1.9, Airport card, model number M7706).
Ruby has a 24XCDROM player.
I also have a Tangerine iMac with a dead mobo, but with a functional
slot loading 4XDVD drive.
My question: can I swap Ruby's
Peter
I cannot see why this shouldn't work. It is a pretty straight forward
procedure to swap optical drives.
They are both slot drives. The Ruby according to MacTracker is an iMac
DV, which came with either a 24x CD or a 4x DVD. I had the 500Mhz Snow
version which came with a DVD drive
Peter
The Tangerine iMac with a slot drive is the batch of models prior to
the Ruby you have. I see no reason why it shouldn't play DVDs.
Like I said I had a Snow version and it came with a DVD and played
them fine. It must have the same video card as your Ruby so I don't
see a problem.
I never could get the plastic case off mine. Luckily the battery was on
the bottom under a shield. Lyle

I stripped all the plastics from both machines and put the good
innards in the Orange plastics.

Hello ,
I replaced the CDROM in my 500mhz G3 (1 gb RAM) with a DVD/CDROM a
few months ago so it is not only possible it worked great. The swap
is pretty easy and requires just a screwdriver. Some of the screws
are rather small so it helps if the screwdriver is magnetized,
especially if
