Latest eMac Headlines: July 5, 2008

eMacs, iMac g4s, some iBooks go Obsolete

by Adam Fisher-Cox on Apr 28, 2008 at 01:28 PM

iBookApple has announced that coming June 2008, a majority of G4 computers will be classified as “obsolete” or “vintage” which means they are no longer supported by Apple in terms of hardware (except for vintage computers, which are only supported in the state of California due to legislation.) If your computer is still supported by Leopard or other software, it’s fine to run it, but if something breaks on your computer, Apple wont fix it, even for a fee. They just won’t have the parts.

As of June 17, 2008, the following computers are no longer supported by Apple.

  • iBooks with 32 MB VRAM
  • iBook (Opaque 16 VRAM)
  • Sunflower iMac Flat Panel (Summer 2001)
  • eMac
  • Power Mac G4 with Firewire 800
