Great video man, I love all of your stuff! A couple things for those interested - I believe only the earliest eMacs with the removable larger-holed speaker grilles have the "good" speakers. I've heard that the later models like the one you reviewed don't compare at all with the sound quality of those ones. Also: regarding the "magnetic" damage to the screen - I've had a few of these computers shipped to me and I've experienced that exact same damage. It's happened only to those that weren't packed very well, which leads me to believe that it's drop damage to the CRT's shadow mask itself, not magnetic damage. I would think magnetic damage would be fixed by a few power/sleep cycles due to the degauss coils built into these machines. This did not fix mine, and it looks like it hasn't fixed yours either. The ones that were packed *extremely* well have suffered no damage to the screen. Also, giving the top a good slap to shake the shadow mask would change the colors, similar to how the speakers are making your shadow mask vibrate around 14:30

There is a live spider inside my eMac, I found it when I moved it from my basement to upstairs. It just came out of the casing.

Give a degaussing wand a try. Easy and cheap to get, don't overdo it, hold it in front of the monitor and wave it slowly in a 360 degree pattern. It should at least help clear up the colour problem. The eMac has a built in degauss but might not be strong enough to clear it.

I got one of these for $20 at a garage sale a while back! A really awesome machine!

Hey, really enjoyed this! A few years ago I restored one of the original ones with the 700 MHz G4. That wire for the power button is shorter on the older ones if you believe it. I have seen the speakers effect the CRT in mine the same way, could be a small design flaw. They made an official stand for these too that I was able to install on mine. :)

When I worked at Best Buy I got my wife an Emac on clearance.... It was, without a doubt, the perfect computer for her. The CRT was amazing. Remember at this time LCD screens looked like ass and this had a DVD player and looked incredible when playing your movies in 4:3

I used to work at UCONN in the summers during the mid-00s. Their library, Babbages, had a dozen of these lined up at the back entrance. They were only used for web surfing next to the cafe.

i remember we had a few emacs at my elementary school in 2009...they fascinated me more than the flatscreen imacs that dominated the computer lab.

the good thing about crt monitors and all in one computers with a built in crt ( heck anything with a crt) Is that if a small creature makes it inside it dies. Of course you must clean the device but at-least they don't run out and do all sort of weird stuff.gotta love the HV part of a CRT.

My elementary school used to have a bunch of these (or something very very similar, I can't quite remember). I still remember using them.

I really enjoy your channel. You are super entertaining. I really hope this reaches you!

Two of my favourite tech youtubers in one video? SIGN ME UP!!

I think the speakers were really good compared to other machines commonly found in education prior and concurrent with the emac. I had them in middle and high school and they were good for the time.

Our video editing lab in high school had mostly G3s, and a couple eMacs. Everyone hogged the eMacs with their beefier specs and much better flat CRT display. The teacher had a G4 iLamp with Final Cut Pro that only the teacher's pets got to use.

Been a while since I checked your channel out. Still got it!

I have a boxed eMac (1.25GHz, 2GB RAM, 80GB hard drive) with Tiger in my basement. I love it but given its size and weight it's hard to set up and use if you just want to mess around in OS X for a bit.

I have an eMac 1.42 model, from I think 2006, that I maxed out at 2 GB of RAM (Yes it can take 2), and I wanted to try an SSD setup for shits and giggles, but I assume capacitor failure recently killed it, as it died one day about 2 months ago. I hope to fix it some day, but am unsure what parts I need. I don't want to take it to several pieces and lose them waiting on new caps. Also, yes, decent speakers. Collab with ElectroBOOM is needed as well.

My high school had eMacs in the Library. The Mac lab had iMacs in it. Both were set to boot in OS9 because the school district and the Votech refused to upgrade until Mac anti-virus was ported over. They used Norton Enterprise AV on the PC's and Mac's. The business department used Windows PC's running both 98 and XP.

My family had this for awhile. It was great.

Now this. This is golden.

I love yesterday shipping! :)

When you said Hey Vio, my Mac's Siri turned on XD

I love the yesterday shipping part

The eMac was the first iMac I ever saw in person, and I was wondering where the computer is, because all of my smart learning taught me that the thing with the screen is just a monitor and the actual computer was the box thing. I had seen all-in-one Macs before like the Classic II and the LC 520, but there it's obvious what part of the case is the monitor and what part is the computer.

Can you please explain why you say Hugh donated the eMac despite the fact that is the video description you say it’s Steve? Please explain

I have the slower 1.25 GHz model from mid 2004. Originally came with Panther and 512 MB DDR. Mine was slightly upgraded to 1 GB memory and has a bad speaker for some reason. Aside from the anti glare coating slightly being gone, I cannot complain when I used it. Was an overkill OS 9 machine for sure but the fact that AirPort Extreme is unsupported in that OS made it a bit inconvenient to use.

Nice! Just got one of these for my anniversary in October. Love it! And yes, the speakers are great ;)

@@ComputerClan LOL Exactly. Mine has a pretty cool stand that came with it. I replaced my iMac G3 in my kitchen with this one (even though I just maxed out the ram on the G3) because the speakers are SHOT in the G3 :( However, with this machine I can actually access O365 webmail, and I can use it to remote into other PCs and Macs around the house. That way I still get to use some native apps but can still use it as a terminal when I need to do something modern. I do that with a lot of my "not too vintage" vintage machines ;)

I remember my elementary had eMacs and for some reason there was a copy of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4 installed on every computer lol

So, should we expect a PowerBook 150 restoration soon?

👍 awesome stuff!!

10:20-11:17 I wish that ad was real with Veo saying "And now, a word from our sponsor" and everything.

The analog power board on these frequently has failing capacitors, mainly from age and poor airflow. Your eMac is powering on, which is a good sign, but you may want to check the caps and pre-emptively replace them. The board should be visible near the neck of the CRT with the white main casing removed. Best wishes.

@MagnumForce51

The caps on the motherboard may also need replaced too. Mine has two visibly blown caps I noticed while cleaning it. Also a 1.42Ghz. Not sure about the older model eMacs, but the 1.42Ghz was the last model they made and it was definitely impacted by the capacitor plague of the early 2000s. I wasn't ware the analog board also had issues. Well mine appears fine. Despite the 2 blown caps on the motherboard it still boots and runs fine. Some minor convergence fringing on the very edges of the screen (but it's miles better then what I'm seeing in this video. :P ) but otherwise still has good picture. I do plan on replacing the caps on the mobo at some point. Fortunately they are through hole mounted caps, so they won't be a pain in to replace. :P Mine was the DDR ram model too. These can be upgraded to 2GB of ram. (Though Apple only officially supported a max of 1GB). The optical drive seems to have died though. I had to swap it out. It doesn't read DVDs anymore and I don't think it was reading CDs anymore. Laser diode tired or maybe bad caps on the logic board? Like the iMac G3 I have, everything in this thing is IDE so I had a few other spares I can toss in so it wasn't really a problem. :P

My school had these things in the computer lab, I basically learned to type on these things.

Man this makes me nostalgic from my elementary days.

I actually unboxed a new one when they first came out...they were so odd even back then....for the education market
