The iMac G3 (Tray-Loading)
The iMac G3 was Apple's new G3 all-in-one. It had tons of new features, and removed all old interfaces. It was released in 1998, and sported a 266Mhz, or 333Mhz PowerPC G3. It also came in five colors: tangerine, blueberry, lime, grape, and strawberry. These were known as the "5 Flavors."

Just did this on my Grape 333 Mhz and on my Lime 333 Mhz which come from from the same place. Actually, I'm surprised that the Grape's logic board has a white IrDA connector which its twin doesn't have...
